I mean, did you ask? Tech people work there, too, and in my experience they love working on this sort of cool stuff.

- prdonahue 5y agoCloudflare employee here. When I graduated from college I left a publicly exposed box (in those days we had a flat, campus-wide /16 with no NAT'ing) server running in the basement of a dorm. I think they finally removed it and the DNS A record a year and a half later :)
