We really need to push back against centralization on a small number of providers. As we have seen with previous Cloudflare issues and the big Dyn incident, a single issue can basically make the internet unusable.

I've been involved in enough government stuff to know that resources like that don't get spent unless the target is _really_ bad. The FBI often refers cases with single digit millions in losses to state and local, because the SAs

So if I end up at a Cloudflare customer over a Cloudflare VPN you will never tie the two records together? That is actually encouraging if you'd publicly commit to that.

Have you considered enabling this out of band? For example as a network administrator I could verify a CIDR block and receive a real time stream of 5-tuples (err, 7-tuples with the proxy?) destined to my network.

They just closed a Series B for $60 million last month, bringing total raise to $90 million. I think it is well outside the reach of individual investors at this point.

That is why Cloudflare wants you to use their VPN rather than an anonymized one. If they can track you, they can have more data about whether to block you.

ADSB is how planes see each other without relying on ATC, and feeds collision avoidance systems. The FAA instructs pilots to believe these systems over ATC because it updates faster than radar. In a very hypothetical worst case scenario, a

As a millionaire, I still can't understand how people buy houses here. You are dumping all of your money into a vastly overpriced asset (vs the rest of the country), with the hopes that in 30 years the valley will be minting multi-mill

Unless someone really screwed up, any logo you see is absolutely an advertisement (with the exception of live format stuff like the news). They have to get permission to use brands, just like clearance for songs.

You are clearly baking in your Twilio/Mailgun costs in to the per-approval price. Why not just let me provide an API key and charge $5/mo for the service itself?

NGINX was already paywalling bug fixes once they launched Pro. proxy_pass for example will only resolve a hostname at the time the configuration is parsed, unless you use a convoluted variable hack. This was a serious issue requiring you to

An interesting data point is that Etsy made charges to cards, but then offered refunds to the bank account on file. This tells me their merchant processing credentials may have been stolen, and since they didn't initiate the debit, the
