That's only if you're using their cloud management BS.

If you're running it locally it doesn't rely on any external systems.

Even 255 bytes with 10 million entries is only ~2.6GB of data you need to store, and if you have 10 million users the probably $1 a month extra that would cost is perfectly fine.

I suppose there may be a performance impact too since you have to read more data to check the hash, but servers are so fast now it doesn't seem like that would be significant unless your backend was poorly made.

Yeah they get a lot of users due to the free plans they offer, so I imagine there's just a lot of reviews as a result, both good and bad.

Also due to the free plan and being commonly used by home lab groups or small businesses, I think there are a lot of users that don't fully understand what they're getting into with CF and may be upset when they find out later on.

If you follow their ToS and understand what cloudflares proxy is doing to your traffic then it all works just fine.

I imagine trustpilot is where people go to vent about bad service because it'll come up when you search for cloudflare reviews.

GPS is one-way receive only, so just using GPS and the others doesn't compromise privacy.

Yeah and gas stations often have an employee and cameras around which probably makes theft occurrences less likely compared to a charging station that has no one around and likely no dedicated cameras in place.

Interesting, that sounds much more complex than using some backup software to image the drive!

Neat idea, a lot more money than a 7th/8th gen box on ebay, but you have a built in UPS and screen for troubleshooting which is nice.

AMT does at least put a large flashing red/yellow border around your screen if someone is accessing it remotely.

I wonder how they think that's possible, the attempts I've made at having an "AI" produce working code have failed spectacularly.

Odd, I've had a Pixel, Oneplus 7 pro, and now a Galaxy S21 and they all pick up my DNS server from DHCP without any issues.

If you have private DNS turned off it doesn't, unless maybe you have some manufacturer specific weirdness going on with extra software.
