The Android issue is an issue, but a separate one. It seems to only happen on a few devices (including mine). What device do you use and on what version of Android?

I'm using it on a Pixel 6 with Android 13.

Same as me then. That's probably part of the issue. Thanks for confirming, I'll let the right team know.

I believe the issues with your video calls and Tuple are due to a specific issue we've recently identified. What video call software do you use? Also, Tuple has a troubleshooting screen to see packet loss etc. Would you be willing to share the data from that screen with us? If so, you can reach out to me using my HN username at cloudflare.

We use mostly Google Meet and Slack for calls. If/when I next experience issues, I’ll be sure to reach out!

Interesting, we've used Google Meet quite a lot without issue. But yes do let me know.

The main bit I'm interested in is definitely Tuple, specifically because it has a diagnostic screen (network insights?). When you have a bad experience, I'd love to know what that screen says

Tuple is what I've had the most amount of trouble with. I even contacted Tuple, thinking it was an issue on their end, but they looked at the logs and said it was most likely a VPN connectivity problem, and suggested I try it without Warp enabled, which so far has been seamless. The issues with Google Meet are pretty intermittent and uncommon—it just tends to cut out at rather inconvenient moments. :) The difficult thing about these types of tools is that the bar for what works "well" is really high; even very infrequent connectivity issues are enough to sour one's opinion of the tool.

Please, where can I read about that? I need it to back my point why putting too much trust into CF is not good.

It's all this: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/raidforums-ha... Also I feel like Raid Forums is a bit mis-characterized in the article. It was largely a forum for people who collect OSINT about breached websites, not really a market place, and in the years that I spent there, I never saw people selling actually carding details, like they claim in the article. I used it regularly for my day job.

Thanks!

Kinda uneasy about how Cloudflare is positioning themselves to have insight into a huge chunk of the Internet's traffic (very much like Google has). Even though there's no visible abuse right now, you know, Google's motto also used to be "don't be evil".

Cloudflare recently hijacked the domain of one of their customers (RaidForums), then cloned the RaidForums login page, and ran a phishing campaign at the behest of the FBI for two weeks. I understand that you have to comply with law enforcement, but actively attacking the users of one of your customer's websites is super rude.

I did a bit of reading on this, and it looks like the main admin was arrested weeks before the phishing campaign went up.

It seems therefore entirely plausable that the admin handed they keys to the castle to the FBI anyway, or at least gave Cloudflare the okay to go ahead.

I can't find a shred of evidence that Cloudflare were involved directly in making the phishing page or even complying with the FBI.

Can anyone explain how Cloudflare got the 1.1.1.1 domain? I know they are an influential company that controls a large portion of the internet, but I'm still confused. Is it an IP or a name that gets matched to an IP?

https://blog.cloudflare.com/dns-resolver-1-1-1-1/ https://labs.apnic.net/?p=1127 Interestingly, we are now 4 years into this 5 year experiment.

> Upon the expiration of the initial period, or at any time thereafter, APNIC shall consider a request by Cloudflare for a permanent allocation of these IPv4 addresses to Cloudflare. APNIC undertakes to refer any such request to the regional Address Policy Special Interest Group as a matter of a change to the current research use designation of these IPv4 addresses, and APNIC shall be bound to the outcomes of this policy group.

Looks like Cloudflare are about to make a sizable "donation" to APNIC.
