Will Sutton (@SuttonThings) reported@a_shimanski @dok2001 @Cloudflare I only got the email a couple of weeks ago so I haven’t fully figured it out yet, but apparently on the free, Pro, or Business Cloudflare plans, it’s classed as “Self Service” and not contracted. That means this (according to what they told me): 1. you’re not allowed to do B2B activities using their “Self service” plans which are all their plans excluding Enterprise/Contract. Which I found really bizarre as pretty much majority of users using any Cloudflare plan is for a business. 2. R2 Egress is NOT free/unlimited as they claim on their marketing sites with the bandwidth alliance. Once you reach an “unknown grey area” threshold (basically whatever they want as thats the words they used), then they can contact and tell you that you must pay otherwise they will terminate the account. 3. “Self-service” usage is essentially intended for serving websites/HTML only. Cloudflare explicitly says that, unless you’re an Enterprise customer, they reserve the right to restrict your account if you use the CDN to serve a disproportionate amount of images, audio, or other large files. So if your application uses R2 to deliver customer files/downloads, you’re falling into exactly the usage they say they can restrict. That’s why it’s sneaky. R2 may be where you store files for an app, but once those files are being delivered through Cloudflare’s CDN, they’ll get you. They said for the traffic I was getting it would cost $4500/month by going into a contract on Enterprise, which was way out of our scope. The apps couldn’t afford that at all. The traffic threshold at which they get in touch with you is a “grey area” they said to me on a call, and that there is no exact amount at which you must stay under to be compliant. So up to now, I’ve just started to close down the only two apps that were starting to work so I can reduce traffic back down to an acceptable (starter) level before they terminate my account. They’re basically killing off startups with their hidden small print by hiding it behind “Self Service” plans that they can decide what to do whenever they want. It’s sad really because I used to love Cloudflare until this happened.

Tseng (@TsengSR) reported@iyici_ You need to learn a lot. Cloudflare is not a Domainseller. They are a Content Delivery Network with Security features for DDOS

VM Varga (@vmvarg4) reported@bot just got me a refund of 400 eur. I had an invoice for car rental sitting in my inbox for a while. I have no time for this ****. It translated the invoice, checked my diamond status, opened the dispute in chat, and soon enough I had 400 out of a 2300 rental refunded. If you can do it, it probably can. I will probably stay with Openclaw/Hermes/Claude, but I am testing this to deploy to less tech-savvy folk at my company. So far, it’s great. It works out of the box. Agents chat with each other. They got their own email in/out in Cloudflare. They joined Google chat rooms as an app (that it set up). Also, it is good with technical stuff, engineering (civil), specifications, Excel, and integrations. Rooting for this.

Payton Bilodeau (@paytonbilodeau) reportedToday in AI: August 13 Grok Takes the Long Shift: SpaceXAI released Grok 4.6 yesterday. The model is built to keep working through long jobs such as research, editing a large code project, and turning an idea into a finished app. The company says longer training taught the model to check its work and recover when a task goes sideways. It is available now in Cursor, Grok Build, the API, and services including OpenRouter, Vercel, and Cloudflare. API pricing starts at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens. Artificial Analysis independently gave Grok 4.6 a score of 61, about even with GPT-5.6 Sol. That puts the model near the frontier, but a benchmark cannot prove it will stay reliable through every long project. The practical test is whether Grok can finish a real assignment without losing the plan halfway through. Give it research, files, tests, and revisions, then see how much rescue work the result needs. DeepSeek Ships the Budget Agent: DeepSeek released the finished version of V4 Pro today in its app, website, and API. It adds support for the Responses API, three thinking levels, room for about one million tokens of text, and direct setup for Codex. DeepSeek reports large gains on coding and tool-use tests. Independent results are more modest. Artificial Analysis gave it a 53, well below Grok 4.6, while measuring a low average cost of six cents per test task. Early user reports are mixed, so the price is clearer than the size of the upgrade. Starting August 16, off-peak API rates will be half the peak rates. Builders can save money by moving long, flexible jobs outside the busiest hours.

ryqwzr (@ryqwzrbuilds) reportedThree AI stories from the August 11 newsletter scan point to the same shift: agents are leaving the chat box and becoming web actors. Meta released Muse Glimmer, a 30B open-weight local agent model under Apache 2.0. Cloudflare told investors non-human traffic has already passed human traffic and could be 1,000x human traffic in five years if current trends continue. ABC reported an OpenClaw/Claude agent found a gym booking vulnerability and affected another user's reservation while trying to move its user up a waitlist. The useful takeaway is not "agents are good" or "agents are bad." It is this: the next platform layer is permissioning. Local models, bot traffic, and autonomous task runners all need clearer rules about what they may do, where they may act, and who pays when they touch the real web. Threads below: local agents, permission gates, and the agentic web.

Jilles Soeters (@Jilles) reported@EmilioSchwaiger Not rude, totally fair. At the time of posting the message I saw it on my personal Cloudflare account (which happens to also be on the Cloudflare Paid plan) and just tweeted that excitingly. I should have done a little more due diligence. That's on me.

dukeo (@dukeo) reportedThe SSL monitoring that I built in Downdar just saved weeks of revenue. A few weeks ago, I've added some new security rules in Cloudflare on my main project to limit scrapers. The unintended consequence was that it blocked Let'sEncrypt from accessing the server to renew our SSL certificates. Since there was a delay between the security change and the SSL certificate needing renewal, if we didn't have SSL monitoring, it could have gone unnoticed for weeks showing broken pages to our visitors. Downdar's SSL monitor was built exactly to catch this kind of issues before it impacts your bottom line.

Vikas(Vik) Malpani| AI for US Real Estate (@vikasmalpani) reportedCloudflare just made any website usable by AI agents with one toggle. The web spent 30 years optimizing for human eyeballs. The visitor it serves now never sees your page. It reads your tools and leaves. Start building for the machine customer, not the human one.

Joshua Abrams (@unlimitedingenu) reported@a_shimanski @Cloudflare Ya idk. It sounds like you found a healthy or safer way to use their services. But watching them go down. Replace half their engineers and code base with AI, and seeing nightmare stories where they get billed for $100k+ cause someone added a loop somewhere just doesn’t seem cool

404oops (@oops4041555) reported@spinelessaisha get a raspi and set up an argo tunnel. simplest ****. you need to pay yearly for a domain, but you can get free domains for like a year or something at freenom (which is what i used before i got my .com) or set up a cloudflare pages at your domain if you have static crap only.

Nifal Adam (@nifal_adam) reported@PhilcMay @a_shimanski @Cloudflare Durable objects have one big problem, its stateful. So if it gets stuck you are in for a surprise bill. So best to use it responsibly.

Onramp (@OnrampBitcoin) reportedMore of the internet's traffic is now agents than humans. Cloudflare expects a thousand to one within five years. The whole web runs on you showing up to look at an ad. If a model reads the page for you, nobody shows up and nobody gets paid. The fix has been sitting there unbuilt since the nineties.

Aakash Gupta (@aakashgupta) reportedOn September 15, Cloudflare will start cutting off Google traffic for millions of its smallest customers by default. And those customers won't leave. They've been begging for this. The story starts with AI Overviews. Google began answering questions directly at the top of search, using content scraped from recipe blogs, how-to sites, and product reviewers, then sending them a fraction of the clicks. One recipe blog called the arrangement a hostage situation. Sites are looking at their traffic charts and realizing the thing they were afraid to lose is already gone. So this was never the death of the internet. This is publishers going to war with Google, and Cloudflare, which sits in front of roughly 20% of the web, just became their army. Peel back a layer and Cloudflare's move gets smarter. They aren't technically blocking Google at all. The new rule blocks any crawler that does both search indexing and AI training in one bot. Googlebot is exactly that bot, one front door for both jobs, which is why nobody could ever block the AI half without losing the search half. Cloudflare's message to Google is simple. Split the bot. Keep search separate and we'll allow it by default. Keep the bundle and our network treats you like a scraper. Which makes this a $107B company dictating terms to a $4.2T one. Cloudflare is 1/40th of Google's size, betting that controlling the pipes beats owning the index. Now we find out if David can make Goliath blink.
