Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince issued a stark warning over LaLiga's ISP blocking campaign. The blockades deny access to less than 150 pirate sites and reportedly render millions of innocent websites unavailable. Prince said he "prays no one dies," after revealing Spanish citizens are being denied access to critical resources. Mass blocking of Cloudflare continued on Sunday, despite a clear indication from Prince that his company has always been willing to cooperate. LaLiga’s 2024/2025 season is

Earlier this month, a coordinated disruption action targeting the Lumma malware-as-a-service (MaaS) information stealer operation seized thousands of domains and part of its infrastructure backbone worldwide. This effort involved multiple tech companies and law enforcement authorities, resulting in Microsoft's seizure of approximately 2,300 domains after legal action against the malware on May 13, 2025. At the same time, the Department of Justice (DOJ) disrupted marketplaces where the malware

This is such an amazing opportunity for us, and I want to explain how we got here, what we’ve built so far, and why we are so excited about becoming part of the Cloudflare team. Databases are key to building almost any production application: you need to persist state for your users (or agents), be able to query it from a number of different clients, and you want it to be fast. But databases aren’t always easy to use: de

I've been a long-time Cloudflare user, but sometimes I just want a global load balancer without the lock-in and with full configuration control (e.g., some Cloudflare rules require an enterprise plan). I love Caddy for its easy configuration, and that's why I created Novnaode. It makes it easy to launch hosted Caddy instances (with Nginx coming soon) and puts you fully in control of how to manage the configurations. No more being restricted by enterprise tiers or limited configuration options

The internet: a once wacky world of strange forums and obscure memes, a tool to harness the sum total of human knowledge at a moment's notice. At least, that was before AI slop ruined everything. To feed data-hungry AI models, companies and individuals are deploying a growing army of AI "web crawlers," bots tasked with sifting the internet for text, pictures, and other data. Once set loose, these bots bog down web servers, destroy search engines, and flood rival crawlers with AI babble. Thanks

Cloudflare announced that its R2 object storage and dependent services experienced an outage lasting 1 hour and 7 minutes, causing 100% write and 35% read failures globally. Cloudflare R2 is a scalable, S3-compatible object storage service with free data retrieval, multi-region replication, and tight Cloudflare integration. The incident, which lasted between 21:38 UTC and 22:45 UTC, was reportedly caused by a credential rotation that caused the R2 Gateway (API frontend) to lose authentication
