As a side note:
CDNS, which usually are the use case for global caches, are also kind of critical when it comes to the GDPR and other privacy laws.
Having no global cache may kill of the usefullness of CDNs (which is somewhat doubtfull given the number of stuff available).
But you are not allowed to use them anyway unless the site is plastered with some allow-all-the-things-popup.
- nly 7y agoCDNs will always be useful all the time the speed of light exists and DDoS is a threat
- LordHeini 7y agoI meant more in the context of caching for fonts and js libraries like the article mentioned. Afaik this is the main use case of CDNs. I am pretty shure that there are way more pages with google fonts than cloudflare protection. And even for the sole purpose DDoS prevention the privacy issue still holds. Sadly that means popups, redirects or other user unfriedly crap on the pages.
