I am not against the idea but Cloudflare should honestly split itself and spinoff the CDN and DDOS/Cybersecurity company if it's also going to do agents.
These two feel like they are opposing teams, I don't think they are colluding today, but how long will that last, this seems very suspicious I say that as a long time cloudflare user, I welcome making the platform agent friendly and adding agent specific deployment cloud stuff like Cloudflare OS is something I can live with as well.
But this is going a bit too far, what's next AI bot net to scrape content from sites protected by Cloudflare? I don't want to sound entitled but man do we deserve better.
- chrysoprace 2mo agoIt's pretty bizarre to see them going from being the bot protection platform to differentiating on the kinds of bots they'll block, because now they're facilitating the exact kind of bot automation they made their name protecting against.
- com 2mo agoSurely it’s smart business to encourage and potentially even profit from both sides of the fence?
- echelon 2mo agoIt feels sickening to watch, because you can get a sense of where this is going. They're cutting AI off at the legs for everyone else, then building the new tool to sell AI enablement. They'll probably let their customers pay to bypass their protection scheme, which will complete the loop. It really rubs me the wrong way. It should 100% be a different company. I don't feel safe with Cloudflare being the ones building this tech.
