Video streaming in general is one of their red lines, you're not supposed to shove any kind of video through their CDN unless the origin is another Cloudflare product (e.g. CF Stream or R2).

From the discussions I've read, it's not as clear cut, e.g.:

https://old.reddit.com/r/PleX/comments/152wfdh/can_i_use_a_c...

It rarely is clear cut with Cloudflare, many of their policies are ambiguous so you never really know if you're stepping over the line until you get an email from sales asking you to either cut it out, start paying, or pay more.

As I've painfully learned, Cloudflare's "free bandwidth" is only free until a point.

Cloudflare threatened to terminate our $20k enterprise license last week for serving 50 TB of API JSON files last month (90% cache hits).

I moved half of the traffic to a new domain without a paid license to see what they say...

My email is [email protected]. You can email me about this.

Agreed with sibling, but TBH if you're just using it for personal streaming, it's not likely to trip any bandwidth alerts on a free account, and CF will probably be happy that you're using it for personal stuff (because you'll probably take it with you to your day job too)

Just don't show up on some motivated salesperson's prospects report.

FWIW that thread looks to be a casino being black listed after trying to negotiate down cloud flares enterprise plan.
