  the honest starting point i see with all this is that scraping can’t structurally be blocked right now. robots.txt and no-ai tags are basically just requests, not walls, and thus they only bind crawlers that choose to listen. glaze/nightshade only work against the specific architectures they were built for. and even if your own site is a fortress it doesn’t matter much when your work is sitting mirrored on instagram, pinterest, and aggregators you don’t control. so “blocking” at internet scale really just means three achievable things: raising the cost, changing defaults, and creating consequences the defaults part is actually shifting right now: cloudflare, via their monetization gateway, is going to start blocking ai training bots by default this september + charging crawlers per fetch, with machine-payment rails behind it (x402). free scraping is genuinely ending for the compliant majority of crawlers. the catch, however, is that those payments go to whoever owns the domain, not the artist whose work sits on it. and rogue scrapers like the ones that hit cara will just continue to ignore the whole system anyways. there’s also an emerging class of encrypted-by-default hosting where crawling is literally impossible and every view is keyed to an identity. doesn’t beat the screenshot problem, but it flips theft from free and anonymous to expensive and traceable, which is its own kind of consequence so the way i see it is that the effort is twofold. the legal one you’re pushing people towards (actual consequences), and building the economic layer alongside it, where consent, credit, and payment travel with the work itself so that paying artists becomes cheaper and easier than stealing from them. so not about accepting the theft, but making the legit path the most profitable one

  Using a WordPress sandbox, I'm now managing the content for 40+ parked domains. WordPress block editor content distributed using @Cloudflare workers with the DNS and routes all configured automatically. No domain mapping issues with WordPress hosts, no multisite bloat.

  A competitor intelligence agent can produce a polished report and still give you the wrong answer. The problem can happen before the analysis even starts. If the researcher agent hits a Cloudflare challenge, an empty response, or a JavaScript shell instead of the actual page, the analyst has no reliable data to work with. It will analyze whatever came back. This article from @ZenrowsHQ walks through how to build a CrewAI competitor intelligence agent with Zenrows, using a dedicated researcher to retrieve competitor data and an analyst to turn that data into a structured brief. It also covers how to handle JavaScript-rendered and protected pages, return structured data with AutoParse, and use the Zenrows MCP server instead of building a custom tool. Link in the comments.

  The wider pattern: the stack is splitting into systems that accumulate identity and systems built to hold less of it. Signal shipped Automatic Key Verification on Aug 11, with Cloudflare and Trail of Bits as independent auditors. Vitalik argued on Aug 7 that pseudonymity no longer survives AI-driven metadata correlation, and that message-level unlinkability is the standard worth chasing. Different projects sit at different points on that curve — the direction of travel is what matters: collect less, retain less, expose less.

  @Taniyatweets_ GitHub but most website servers are behind cloudflare if that goes half of internet will go down.

  @mehulmpt you sure about cloudflare? they are down each month. and cloudflare is much easier to host than a *** service. This is disengenious example, but yes, Github is horrible at reliability but it's cheap too cheap. I think they should split public and enterprise Githubs. So paying customers don't have downtime.

  Cloudflare replaced NGINX over its process model, not its code. Per worker pools fragment at scale, so origins eat endless handshakes. Pingora shares one pool and pushed a customer from 87.1 to 99.92 percent reuse. Rewrite when the architecture is the ceiling.

  if you want to run a series A startup: Rails = the entire app. Postgres = source of truth. ClickHouse = analytics. Kafka = getting one into the other. (MSK) Sidekiq = everything async. ECS + EKS = deploys your own models. (GPUs, lol) Terraform = all of it, in code. Grafana + Sentry = knowing what broke. Statsig = flags + experiments. Stripe = money in. Mercury = money out. Loops = email. Intercom = support. Cloudflare = DNS. Vercel = marketing website. Linear + Graphite = shipping. Claude = coding / artifact generation total monthly cost: definitely not $20.

  @ezsmith397 it's a time issue than an actual issue. naturally things do depend on client needs... there are bad builders everywhere... and they will show themselves like in any gold-digging-era. i couldn't do what I do now without AI, before it took weeks or months and most things died before they became an implementation. it's a gold era for me, for my brain, for my creative skills and I find AI to expand me, not copy or mirror mediocre cookie cutter deliveries without the depth and skills 25+ years of a nerd behind a screen, with actual real life skills how things work and how to transcend them to the screen, is a gift that keeps growing with AI. one might not need to know what the OSI model is, but knowing things like yourself EZ with programming skills, gives massive advantages others AI builders can't compete with, at least not for another 6 months... but thats our advantage, we can grow now on AI that they won't be able to be at today and skynet is the limit for where we actually are in 6 months. one can prompt shot a site for a client with editable fields with auth for data and create data banks for phone number email etc and template for posts and make a simple interface where they can add posts on /admin with one-time email codes for login (easiest I find for "sometime" updates by clients) and its all run on a cloudflare worker that do all the work. add a report script where customers can click/tap report issues and it feeds back to the backlog and you can automate run them in a cron and you get a notification to fix the planned issue found by yes on telegram or whatever channel. its all in the data now, the cleaner and purer the data is without contingencies such as legacy WP has (for now), the faster the world is moving forward.

  @ChiragAsarpota if you're building a service around routing, the better model is to own the whole stack, and not just be a cloudflare worker reverse proxy. sure, they got $7B... but that's only a marketing play and is done and probably won't happen again.

  I'm getting so much AI / bot traffic on my Shopify store that I have no idea what the conversion rate is anymore. I tried using @Cloudflare with O2O and AI Labyrinth, bot blocking and a bunch of WAF rules but the AI bots keep coming and inflating my session data. Anyone at @liam_at_shopify can help? Screenshot shows sessions today so far - I don't have a Chinese locale and don't ship to China.

  Using X android app, it crashes. Start it back up, locked out for 'suspicious activity'. Pass cloudflare, app crashes again. Open app again, page keeps switching back and forth between cloudflare and the 'pass a challenge' page. Close and restart app, page schizophrenically shuffles cloudflare, 'pass a challenge' and the login page. Give up and post on pc.

  I think infra might be one of the areas where coding agents feel the most unfair. So much of the job used to be babysitting slow feedback loops: change something → deploy → wait 15 min → find out it broke → fix → wait again. Now you can give an agent the Terraform, let it understand how the whole thing is wired together, read the errors, and keep iterating. Obviously this doesn't make infra trivial. Security, WAFs, rate limits, CloudFront, Cloudflare, permissions, etc. still need actual thought. But for relatively simple products, the amount of annoying work that just disappeared is kind of insane. It also makes some infra SaaS feel a lot less essential when you have an agent + a pile of AWS/GCP/Azure startup credits. Much respect to the people who were doing all this **** manually 5 years ago.

  I’m building a SaaS where customers will use their own custom domains. Can anyone familiar with Cloudflare for SaaS clarify this for me? The pricing page says $0.10 per additional hostname. Is that $0.10 per hostname per month, or a one-time charge? Any confirmation from someone who has actually used Cloudflare for SaaS billing would be really helpful. It’ll help me choose the right stack for my SaaS. @CloudflareDev @threepointone

  @htmx_org I’m shifting my strategy thusly: Only purchasing lower-end consumer Mac hardware that I don’t mind upgrading (iMacs, MacBook Airs) that connect to storage and services run on a cobbled together Linux box in my house. Everything I need, Postgres, mssql, plex, file storage, next cloud, LLM services, forgejo… I’ll either do ssh tunneling or set up Cloudflare tunnels for remote access. I’m cobbling together such a system right now, partially from old PC parts I already had sitting around. A quad-core ryzen box with DDR4 is more than enough for any and all of this, and will be for a long time. I still get the userland and mainstream support of macOS, while I can grow, mod and cobble together commodity HW. The central idea is: data portability between systems. Then your userland and desktop environment starts to matter less.

  The important split is Cloudflare's new taxonomy: - Search crawlers help people find pages - Training crawlers feed models - Agent crawlers act on behalf of users Those are not the same economic bargain. Search can send attention back. Training and agent use can extract value without a visit. Cloudflare is making that difference configurable at the network layer.

  The cost of early complexity in software is something we tend to not consider when building. I’ve been an engineer for about 5 years now and in that time, I’ve been encouraged to learn technology and systems that do not fit my needs because it was trending at the moment. One of such is Kubernetes. Popularly known as K8s. It is an orchestration technology developed by Google. While it is exceptional at what it is designed for, your software might not need it. Docker or Podman is much more sufficient for most use cases. Another is GRPC and GRAPHQL, I’m not saying these are bad but your software might also not need it. You’re not processing data at the scale of Shopify or Facebook to justify the complexity of setting up a graphql server or are you having cross service communication that you need the smallest amount of latency to justify setting up and managing a grpc server. Another one that irks me is using a cloud provider like AWS, GCP or AZURE. Brother, you do not need a cloud provider, your mostly Nigerian users would not benefit from your app having high availability across 10 regions and your user base is too small to justify that auto scaling group you just added. Keep it simple, a shared VPS and cloudflare is more than enough to serve your application to thousands of users. These are my opinions and not facts. Code smart, not hard.

  1/2 Quick tip that can save your parents/grandparents a ton of headaches: Grandma and Grandad keep getting hit with phishing texts and links. Every few months the phone gets completely wrecked and needs a factory reset. Changing the DNS to Cloudflare Family (1.1.1.3 + 1.0.0.3) blocks known phishing, malware, and scam sites at the DNS level. When they click a bad link, the page just doesn’t load instead of infecting the phone. It’s free, doesn’t slow anything down, and works quietly in the background. Not 100% perfect, but it stops a huge chunk of the common phishing junk older people get targeted with.

  @scheemunai @shanejones The number of people disabling scripts is neglible, mostly non-existent. The bigger problem will be adblockers blocking the Google Analytics code. So your real number I guess will be say like ~20% higher than GA reports. The Cloudflare one is highly inflated all the time.

  On August 6th, @Cloudflare launched a web browser no human will ever use. It's called Kitesurf, and it's built only for AI agents. Instead of forking Chromium — the engine behind almost every browser automation tool of the past decade — Cloudflare put together a new lightweight engine in Rust. In their own tests it uses up to 3.8x less CPU and 7x less memory than Chromium, at the cost of running a bit slower per task (@TechCrunch). Read past the specs. The cost of letting an agent act on the web just dropped by a large multiple. When something gets that much cheaper, you don't get a little more of it. You get a flood. That's where I'd slow down. Every company is about to run far more agents, doing far more things, for far less money. The bottleneck stops being "can we afford to run agents" and becomes "can we trust what they do at that volume." Here's the part that changes. A wrong answer used to be one bad report that one person caught. At agent speed, one wrong definition becomes a thousand wrong actions before anyone looks. The mistake isn't worse. There are just many more copies of it, made much faster. So before you scale the agents, fix what they read. Clear definitions. One source of truth. A named owner for each definition, so when something breaks you know who fixes it. Cheap agents multiply whatever you feed them. Make sure it's worth multiplying.

  @kellabyte Cloudflare doesn't give the details on how they do durability. For CellD I think you can have different durability levels, like making every write be RPO 0 but I think it's configurable to have better write performance at the expense of there being potential data loss if the node goes kapoot. I think I see what you meant about the issue with reads after writes because if the local sqlite db is lost and there was a read after a write and the write isn't durable the client could see some inconsistent state.

  @RobCairns I run everything through Cloudflare, am hosted at Kinsta, use either Wordfence or Sucuri, and keep everything updated almost daily, so...I don't see the issue. If I were working with shared hosting on GoDaddy with no other security measures, that would be one thing, but I keep things pretty buttoned up. Claude is using the Divi tools - it's just doing the work for me. There's no code, per se. Maybe you should ask before you pass judgment?

  @frantzfries cloudflare didn't build a new moat, they repositioned an existing one (network layer control) for a buyer that didn't have budget for it yet. that kind of positioning velocity only works because the capability was already sitting there waiting for demand to catch up.
