Off-topic: Tailscale seems like such a perfect acquisition target for Cloudflare. It seems like there's perfect product and culture alignment. Amirite?

- dontdoxxme 3y agoNot sure if serious. Tailscale is end to end encrypted. Cloudflare is probably just this generation’s Crypto AG: https://www.agwa.name/blog/post/cloudflare_ssl_added_and_removed_here https://www.agwa.name/blog/post/cloudflare_ssl_added_and_rem...
- wmf 3y agoI don't think they want to be acquired and I'm not sure it's healthy for everything to get sucked into Cloudflare either.
- candiddevmike 3y agoCloudflare tunnels/zero trust largely do the same thing as Tailscale. Yes there are some gaps but probably not acquisition worthy
- apitman 3y agoAs far as I know Cloudflare doesn't do any p2p/e2ee, which is a pretty fundamental difference
- neverrroot 3y agoHope not. CF is in the meantime too large to really care about “retail” that much.
- aerhardt 3y agoWhat do you mean by “retail”? Because Cloudflare does plenty of products for smaller teams - I’d even say it’s a cornerstone of their strategy.
- vluft 3y agoI sure hope you are not.
