Bryan Ng (@boomerrbryan) reportedThere is a company that takes a cut of nearly every dollar that moves across the internet and most people have never heard its name It's not Google. It's not Amazon. It's not Meta It's Cloudflare About 20% of all websites on earth route through their servers. When you visit most major sites, you're not connecting to the site. You're connecting to Cloudflare first. They see the traffic. They meter it. They charge for it $4.2 billion in revenue last year. Up from $1.6 billion in 2021. Growing 30%+ every year. And they've achieved this without a single consumer ever choosing to use them Here's how the toll booth works: Cloudflare sits between you and the website you're trying to visit. When you type in a URL, your request goes to Cloudflare's server, not the website's server. Cloudflare checks if you're a bot, filters attacks, caches content, and then passes you through The website owner pays Cloudflare for this protection. If they don't pay, their site gets slower, less secure, and less reliable. It's not optional in any practical sense. The alternative is getting DDoS'd into oblivion or watching your site crawl 20% of the internet. Every day. Every click. Metered and billed Now here's where it gets dystopian and where the money angle opens up: Cloudflare doesn't just sit there. They're building AI tools that let website owners charge AI companies for scraping their content. Every time ChatGPT or Claude reads a webpage, Cloudflare can meter that too They turned the internet's biggest invisible gatekeeper into the internet's first AI toll collector. The same company that already touches 20% of web traffic now gets to decide what AI companies pay to read the internet The stock is up 380% in 3 years. Nobody on CNBC talks about it. Nobody on Twitter knows it exists. It's a $70 billion company hiding in plain sight And the parallel to YouTube is exact: Cloudflare is to websites what YouTube is to video. An invisible infrastructure layer that everyone depends on, nobody thinks about, and the owner of the layer collects from every transaction that passes through it The person who builds a YouTube channel is doing the same thing at a smaller scale. Owning a piece of internet infrastructure that generates revenue every time someone passes through. A video answering a question that 200 people google every month is a toll booth on that question. Every viewer pays attention. The platform pays you for their attention Most business owners rent their infrastructure from Facebook ads and Google ads. They pay the toll. They never own the booth own the booth (link in bio.)

Aaryan Bansal (@NotUnHackable) reported@CloudflareHelp @Cloudflare @CloudflareDev i paid for my workers for this month and the invoice shows that it is from 22 June - 23 August. I paid that now on 31st but it doesn't let me get my workers pro for some reason. Please DM me and get this issue resolved

blueguy (@itsmeblueguy) reported@anilsoylu @Cloudflare There’s only one person that can fix things around cloudflare and is not even an employee lol @theo do your rants haha

Syed Balkhi (@syedbalkhi) reported@carlhancock Yup. I have multiple WooCommerce stores in many millions in annual revenue, and I know several customers who're much bigger using Woo. If a Woo store can't scale, it's likely a hosting infrastructure problem. We just switched our WooCommerce to @LevamoHosting and the speed is incredible with Cloudflare Enterprise, Auto-scaling, Redis Object cache, etc. Other hosts like Rocket, Pressable, etc all offer solid Woo hosting options that will scale.

Kimera2345 (@Kimera2345_) reportedI love getting randomly dinged as supposedly being a bot for no given reason. I assume it's because I was setting up a second account on another device and it freaked whatever AI **** they have out. (I was jailed in Cloudflare hell)

yohance (@yohanc33) reported@leinwand @eastdakota @Cloudflare Cool, I happened to apply for this fall’s SWE position (and the previous fall, as well as the previous summer, no luck so far :p). Think I could get a referral? I’ve used several cloudflare infra products (R1, Workers, Workers AI, Workflows, etc). Working on mastercard’s service mesh this summer using Go.

Jonas Templestein (@jonas) reported@dok2001 @jachands @mattzcarey I think even outside MCP oauth, managing scopes on access tokens on cloudflare is super confusing and tedious There seem to be two similar but different UIs that are each really fiddly and require advance knowledge of what scopes are called. There is no “manifest” support as far as I can tell where I could just paste a Jain blob or something to update scopes

Olaoluwa Ajibade (@ajibadde) reportedA good example happened at internet scale. One internal change at Cloudflare affected millions of websites. ChatGPT. X. Spotify. Uber. Canva. None of them were broken. They were caught inside the blast radius.

The SaaStronaut | AEO/SEO & Reddit Marketing (@TheSaastronaut) reportedHad a $8k/mo client freak out recently bc someone cloned their website, started impersonating them, and was phishing prospects to do God knows what. This clone was ranking page 1 too bc of the name match Client sends the duplicate site to me asking if it was us doing some SEO trick, I said no He said Okay, but was visibly worried This was a rare and unconventional situation And handling client impersonation isn't in a typical SEO's wheelhouse, contract, or scope of work... We had no contractual obligation to look into this or try and fix this But the issue was in search results, and we were the search visibility partner. I saw it as our responsibility whether it was explicitly written or not So, I had the team: 1) Preserve full technical evidence, screenshots, source code, DNS records, forms, hosting details, and timestamps. 2) Sent a takedown notice to the origin host, Omegatech. 3) Submitted abuse reports to Cloudflare and NameSilo. 4) Reported the domain to Google Safe Browsing and Microsoft SmartScreen as an impersonation/phishing site. After our reports, the site was taken down I've done soooo much out of scope work for clients and never ever mention it to them. If you're my client, we're going to take care of you. That's why average client lifecycle with Kingmaker is 2+ years

MarkQuarter (@MarkQuarter) reported@kit_sats @JWWeatherman_ There are other complicated factors: JW is completely right about all the scams With COLD CARD: can be: A. Inside Job B. Accident C. Undetected, complex entropy down grade attack or similar Finance Infrastructure gets tons of attacks 24/7 -- this will hopefully lead to better Practices to prevent that & better Quantum Safe Tech for both $BTC & Traditional Finance: because as is bitcoin is working on Quantum Safe: however neither Finance Infrastructure or some Blockchains are Quantum Safe yet [ note: bitcoin uses 256 bit elliptic curve cryptography ---- while 256 bit AES is not breakable by the near future Quantum: the 256 bit elliptic is breakable in the future, possibly early 2030s, so bitcoin is upgrading It's not as simple as either: Coding or the User trying to make a complicated enough Wallet or Seed : One of the continuous defense necessities is from those Entropy Downgrade Attacks ] Then: you got some of those Exchange Scams or other Insider Scams incentivized by undetected attacks as well: that's with... from $GOOGL: "Automated and Global Threat Volumes 600 million+ daily signals: Major tech platforms like Microsoft intercept and block hundreds of millions of automated global malware, botnet, and phishing attempts daily Billions of web blocks: Large cloud and security infrastructure providers like Cloudflare routinely filter out tens to hundreds of billions of hostile background scans and suspicious connection requests across the broader internet daily" So: some of the "Scams" can be more complicated than they appear : far better 24/7 defense for Infrastructure is needed As of yet COLD CARD doesn't appear to be Inside Job.. & regardless it strongly appears there will be some attention on & following of that bitcoin to find out who hacked it ... unfortunately as it is though Recovery , in practice is not such a perfected process: However hopefully it is possible & is done with the COLD CARD attack
