From their play store description:
"Best of all: No upsells, no in-app purchases, and free for life. Website owners pay us to make your Internet faster so you don’t have to."
That sounds totally against net neutrality to me. Unless website owners are not getting preferential speed up.
- eridius 8y agoThe description does not mean website owners are paying so that users of this app can get a faster connection to them. It just means website owners pay Cloudflare already, Cloudflare’s business model is selling services to website owners, and so this dinky app for consumers has no need to make money and therefore is free.
- brians 8y agoWellll.... paying Cf customers will get lower latency service using this, just as Cloudfront gives better service to AWS users. That’s part of why this app is in CF’s interests.
- eridius 8y agoThis app only redirects DNS, it does not tunnel any other networking. The DNS speedup someone will get by using this app applies to all domains, not just those of websites that pay for Cloudflare.
