I would be interested in something like AWS Lambda@Edge or Cloud Workers from Google. Love to run a simple script close the visitor's location e.g. from Belgium DC instead of US DC etc

That would be nice although Google CDN even without any compute is pretty slow compared to cloudflare.

Google has many data centers around the world. I don’t see why they can have cloud run automatically select the data center closest to the user and spin up the container there. That would deffo solve a lot of problems.
