The tweet is misleading. He mounted his TV on top of his thermostat[0]; and I'm sure he knew full-well that it meant he wouldn't be able to change the temperature without the app.
They do. You can turn them. Turns out this individual decided to mount his TV over his Nest[0]. So changing the temperature without the app requires removing the TV.
While we haven't relaxed the 1MB restriction, we have made some changes to the way we compress and distribute your code to the edge. I'd encourage you to try again, and our new CLI[0] handles the webpacking for you.
I've been at Cloudflare just over a year now, and if there's one message that's been drilled into my head it's Trust. We understand that we're in the position that we're in largely due to trust. I like to believe that even if our CEO is a secret lizard person you'd get whistleblowers coming out of the woodwork if we tried to exploit our users.
I'm curious on what's missing from Cloudflare Workers to allow you to remove the API Gateway usage. We're actively looking for more advanced use cases so we can make sure we prioritize upcoming features. Reply here or send me an email at <username> at cloudflare.com.
It's something we're iterating on, and the results are so far looking promising; but there are a few scenarios in which they may not work (yet). If you reach out to your SE they should be able to get into specifics.
Cloudflare has a transparency report[0], updated twice a year.
In the transparency report there's a warrant canary:
Some things we have never done
Cloudflare has never turned over our SSL keys or our customers' SSL keys to anyone.
Cloudflare has never installed any law enforcement software or equipment anywhere on our network.
Cloudflare has never terminated a customer or taken down content due to political pressure.
Cloudflare has never provided any law enforcement organization a feed of our customers' content transiting our network.
>Where do you draw the line between political pressure and the management's political beliefs?
So far, Cloudflare's most notorious content on the other side of the line has been Daily Stormer back in August of 2017.
>The tipping point for us making this decision was that the team behind Daily Stormer made the claim that we were secretly supporters of their ideology
That latest report says it covers the first half of 2017 so we'll have to wait to see whether they consider the actions from the second half of the year to change the fourth item on that list.
Is it concerning yet that they haven't put up their semi annual warrant canary, actually? The last two times, they had it updated by January 14th [0] and July 8th.[1]
