Cloudflare, the leading connectivity cloud company behind which 20% of the Internet’s traffic sits, launched a one-click Content Credentials system to track image authenticity across the internet and preserve accurate creator attribution.
This is a massive deal and a huge win for the Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI), which Cloudflare has also joined. Content Credentials, based on the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA), allow publishers, creators, and regular web users to trace the origin of the media they view. It also ensures that creators can be accurately and consistently credited for their work.
Just host your own reverse proxy. It’s not hard
Really? For DDOS and privacy protection?
I know Cloudflare is indeed a growing issue. But I think it’s growing because it’s really difficult to self host/provide some of their services.
Most providers like hetzner and contabo already provide ddos protection. No everyone needs ddos protection anyway and the privacy issue its not certain with cloudflare either not would I argue that the costs are worth it.
Which ones? What for?
Really the only service of such extreme convenience I can’t help but use it is cloudflare tunnels for quickly selfhosting and their cheap asf domain registrar.
Still, I don’t host anything via cloudflare per se even as a noobie.
Not sure what else you need.
Porkbun is an alternative for the lower cost registrar part.
But I thought Cloudflare had great DDOS protection. And the comment I replied to says to just do it yourself.
Why did you skip over that?
They say it’s not hard when you know how. I don’t know how and even when I think I do it’s usually still difficult :)
Currently using no-ip so friends can use a web address for game sever or get some files, instead of my ever-changing IP, for free.
No-ip’s DDNS is relatively wonderful.
Scammy in a sort of eastern european sleazy used car dealership way, I had to talk to their support once about a double charge and it felt like Roman from GTA IV was on the other side.
You can do both.
I have Cloudflare pointing to my reverse proxy which the points to a website and other subdomains.
Had to hunt through a bunch of forums to work out how to get it to work.
