It’s not that it can’t do it, it’s that it’s against the terms of service to use it for video.

- stingraycharles 11mo agoIsn’t that for their CDN, rather than Zero Trust? I don’t think they even know what traffic is going over Zero Trust.
- mycall 11mo agoYou can't play corporate videos over Cloudflare Warp? Where is the line drawn?
- tombert 11mo agoI think they don't want you using a boatload of bandwidth, since data proxies through their servers.
- wink 11mo agoYes and that's what people are criticizing - it's just an arbitrary and thus very bad rule. Completely unrelated to CloudFlare, I streamed a single TV series from a friend's plex account 1-2y ago, that's less traffic than some of my friends use in 2 weeks. I'm not saying they can't have that rule, it's their infra - I'm just saying that "a boatload of bandwidth" can be anything, depending on who you ask.
- tombert 11mo agoFWIW, even if it’s against the rules I have been using Cloudflare tunnels for my Jellyfin server for months and I haven’t even gotten a nastygram yet. I think it’s more of a “we reserve the right to…” situation than anything else.
