> Your business, your values, you're of course free to ignore Cloudflare if you disagree with their policies
Yes, thank you for making my argument for me?
> How can a business, specifically a CDN, not be centralized?
A CDN could not be centralized in the market by having meaningful competition. Cloudflare is in front of 80% of the Alexa top 1 million sites. That's a lot of eggs in one basket.
> What kind of support are they supposed to give their competitors that they aren't?
That's my bad. I meant that using Cloudflare is not supporting their competitors.
For what it's worth, I use Cloudflare for half a dozen sites. But I also run a local IPFS node (a decentralized CDN) because it fetches IPFS hosted content faster than the Cloudflare IPFS proxy does and because I don't like my own traffic being beholden to Cloudflare if I can help it.
