- mrkurt 5y agoI think we're a year ahead of Cloud Flare on learning but we do not want to be acquired. They also don't like us much.
- rhizome 5y agoThat's what they all say.
- mrkurt 5y agoSometimes it's a negotiation stance. Sometimes it just means "getting acquired sucks and we would rather do our own thing in the way that we think is best". Like this time!

- rattray 5y ago> They also don't like us much Huh, that's too bad! Meaning they've caused trouble for your customers? Definitely disappointing to hear...
- mrkurt 5y agoOh no. I don't want to imply anything nefarious. I think we've just been irritating.
- gingerlime 5y agowhen can we see some real competition with CF? as in offering a modular CDN, WAF, etc? Your build-your-CDN blog post left me hoping you’ll build one for us :)
- mrkurt 5y agoI think we'll solve some of this, most people who want a WAF just want to check a box. It makes sense to sell them a WAF. It's not where we're most valuable, though, our customers are pushing us towards much more interesting infrastructure. :)
