Cake Pay and Tor: "Use from this IP address is not allowed" (monero.town)

Does Cake Pay Web block Tor exit nodes? I keep getting a pink error message that says "Use from this IP address is not allowed".I'm just checking it out for the first time at buy.cakepay.com and I've tried connecting unsuccessfully from multiple different Tor ip addresses. If so, doesn't this run contrary to their logstanding support of privacy and anonymity?

Does it use Cloudflare? Because if so, that would probably explain it.

It seems to use chatwoot.app. Even Cloudflare-protected websites let me through some of the time. Does VikXMR ever come here to comment? He seems like a pretty straight shooter.

Yeah, I've seen him here once or twice, so he might very well answer. You could also try the cake wallet matrix room, which he is in as well.
