Whoever owns cloudflare is in the comfortable position to track most of the web traffic back to its source address without any effort. Highly pipelined and centralized infrastructure built by volunteers who love the product. Please correct me, if I miss the point.

Talking about mass surveillance: After taking the usual measurements against cross-site browser tracking- who knows most about my website visits? Meta, Google or Cloudflare? Blocking me from site visits with fingerprinting shut off, forces all my traffic back into the CF funnel. Number of websites soaring.

This is so cool. Finally all my favorite extensions/addons on the iPad. Feels like breaking out from jail. Thank you, developers!

The future of AI is not US vs. China. The future of AI is to empower a minority to control the majority.
