Browser Support • Re: Cloudflare Verification Loop issues

This is an interesting article from TheRegister on Friday - I did not realize that Cloudflare is losing money and firing workers as fast as possible - 20% layoff company-wide on Friday and a 23% stock drop! I wonder if any of the folks we've been trying to work with are already gone now?

On the same day, across the country, Cloudflare was spelling out the bad news to its employees that it planned to cut the workforce by 1,100, roughly 20 percent. Cloudflare co-founders Matthew Prince and Michelle Zatlyn said it was not about cutting costs, but about building a company that meets the AI moment.

Cloudflare’s revenues grew 34 percent year over year to reach $639.8 million in the first quarter. It posted a net loss of $22.9 million. It expects to pay up to $150 million in severance and benefit payments related to the layoffs.

While Akamai’s stock price surged 26 percent on Friday, Cloudflare dropped 23 percent.

What happens if Cloudflare fails and leaves behind a dizzying array of browser-busting zombie CF checks all over the internet? Could be disastrous.
