Wow the people in this thread are a huge bummer. This is much cooler and I doubt this is a real safety issue. You can already sign up for a free cloudflare account and deploy it for free, on your own, on a free workers.dev domain. The friction removal here isn't going to meaningfully change the security / amount of malicious content.
This is the economic theory of value creation though - arguably the world is better off because new projects can be created, and they are marginally cheaper than they would have been previously
The comments in this thread are truly a distillation of HN. So wild how many bad takes there are

I did something similar with CA a few months back - https://blog.jonlu.ca/posts/ca-plate-checker

Next steps would be to make it LLM assisted and to generate common number/letter replacement combos

Actually hilarious, the distribution of comments on HN is truly bimodal
We've been extremely happy Northflank users for a year now. We are a small, seed stage startup that is managing 7 different clusters across 3 separate clouds (GCP, Azure, and AWS) and Northflank has made it a breeze to use.

We manage a fleet of ~200 GPUs without a hitch. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a solution in the manged kubernetes / BYOC space.

You can do a lot of these fully locally with things like RVC web ui or https://tryreplay.io/

This is a weird coincedence - I just published a blog post on this two days ago https://blog.jonlu.ca/posts/snappy-internet
Side note - I built a tool to help detect non-default javascript variables attached to the global scope https://github.com/jonluca/Window-Differ to aid in security analysis like this. Would be pretty nice to have in devtools
