Cloudflare turns 15yo this week. As is our tradition, we’ll launch a bunch of products and features to give back to the Internet. But Michelle Zatlyn and I also took the time to reflect on the last 15 years of the Internet and what will change over the next 15. blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-202…

It’s extra special to be recognized during Cloudflare’s Birthday Week, when we announce things each day that give back to the Internet. 🧡 Always an honor to be on the FORTUNE Change The World list. Congratulations to everyone making a difference!

Cloudflare runs ~20% of the web. It just rolled out a new license for millions of websites that could reshape the rules of engagement for AI bots. Matthew Prince 🌥 is going after Google’s AI Overviews in particular: “Every AI answer engine should have to play by the same rules”
