 * No idea what this plugin is doing, but I don’t trust it.
 * It keeps getting blocked by my host’s **ModSecurity **whenever I try to save 
   changes in the plugin settings.
 * Even if I disable ModSecurity, it takes a really long time to save changes. What
   is it doing that takes 10+ seconds to save changes??
 * I thought it could be caused by a conflict with another plugin, like LiteSpeed
   Cache. So I tried CMP on a fresh install with no other plugins, and same issue,
   takes a long time to save changes and gets blocked by ModSecurity.
 * Also, Bing started blocking stylesheets on my development website, flagging them
   internationally as blocked suspicious files. This started happening after installing
   the plugin. So the only page visible on my website is now the CMP gate, and all
   of a sudden my websites are getting flagged by Bing as security issues, while
   ModSecurity is blocking CMP from running on my host.

 * Yeah, I don’t know WTF is going on, but I’m no longer trusting this plugin.
