  1. Not all heroes wear capes—some just enforce security at Tires Aerodrome. Huge shoutout to the Cascais airfield staff for keeping billionaires in check! First, #Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince threw a tantrum over his luggage being scanned. Now, they caught former #F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone trying to board a private jet with a hidden gun! Imagine thinking security laws are just "suffocating bureaucracy" for the peasants.This unapologetic Portuguese stubbornness against elite entitlement is exactly why #Portugal remains one of the safest destinations in the world. We don't care how many billions you have or if you own the jet; your bags go through the scanner. And that's exactly why our streets stay safe and gun-free. 🇵🇹#Portugal #Tires #MatthewPrince #BernieEcclestone #SafeTravel

  3. #Bot #WebTraffic has overtaken human web traffic, data shows

    "Website traffic from #AI agents and #bots has eclipsed its human-generated counterpart for the first time, according to Cloudflare, an earlier-than-expected milestone that speaks to AI’s rapid advance and impact.

    " 'Welp, that happened faster than I predicted,' #MatthewPrince, co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare, one of the largest internet hosting services, wrote Thursday on X.

    “Thought it would be end of 2027, then early 2027,” he continued, “but agentic traffic growing so fast that bots have now passed human traffic online for the first time in the Internet’s history.”

    "The rise is attributed to the continued proliferation of AI agents, largely autonomous programs that use tools that collaborate with high-level programs and data, with little human feedback.

    "Cloudflare, which has a feature to display bot versus human-generated search requests, says 57.4% of requests are now initiated by bots, compared with 42.6% coming from humans.

    "Humans might browse five websites before making a purchase, however, while an AI service might browse 5,000 websites."

  8. Venture Capitalist's Ire Ignites Over Tech Giant's Workforce Reductions

    Venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya strongly criticized Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince's message to staff after the company laid off nearly 1,000 employees.

  9. (19 Nov) Massive Cloudflare outage was triggered by file that suddenly doubled in size “I worry this is the big botnet flexing,” CEO said. But outage was self-inflicted. https://s.faithcollapsing.com/bbd9x #biz-&-it #cloudflare #matthew-prince #outage #policy

  10. An outage like today is unacceptable. We've architected our systems to be highly resilient to failure to ensure traffic will always continue to flow. When we've had outages in the past it's always led to us building new, more resilient systems.

    On behalf of the entire team at Cloudflare, I would like to apologize for the pain we caused the Internet today.

    This conversation is a practical map of how AI “answer engines” upend the web’s traffic-funded model – and what could replace it."
