I know they consider "1.1.1.1" to also be a product name, but it's very confusing when the text says 1.1.1.1 50 times, and then there's 2 mentions of "Oh, the service is at 1.1.1.2".

The name they could have used: 1.1.1.2 (1.1.1.1 for families) Or more correct: 1.1.1.3 (1.1.1.1 for families)

  It still results in kinda weird readings when the product name is also one of its subproducts but not all of them. Like a coffee shop called "The Big Cup" with a menu "The Big Cup", "The Medium Cup" and "The Small Cup".

They laid it out pretty simply in the article: 1.1.1.1 - General 1.1.1.2 - No Malware 1.1.1.3 - No adult content Personally I like how they laid this out, makes it super easy to remember.

  I like it too. If Cloudflare posts become the impetus for reading the article, all the better. Their posts are well written and they don't burden the reader with what the editor wants you to know after hooking you with a headline.

  1.1.2.1 - General with no ads 1.1.2.2 - No Malware and no ads 1.1.2.3 - No adult content and no ads This would be amazing if they have the guts to do it. I suspect they will one day when they become huge (they're already handling some 10% of global internet traffic). Today, I want a big corporate pi hole that is managed for me - enough fire power to block shitty ads. Completely undercut Google, FB, Twitter ad machines. More eggregious are the media companies such as Adobe and their ad-tech. For businesses ads are super important and we also need to consider the other side of the coin.

    I'm not sure I follow why this would be a big deal. There are already ad filtering DNS resolvers and most people are better served by a browser extension.

      we have a pi hole and it makes a world of difference. smart devices and iphones are adless in our house.

      It would be a huge deal. Sort of how Apple has the power to put in place a whole slew of privacy measures on the iPhone. Let Big Tech fight amongst themselves. The opposite would be terrifying. I consider Cloudflare a formidable player wedging between Big Tech corporations.
