That tool maps where Durable Objects run, not Workers. Durable Objects run in more limited locations for their "Durableness". For example, writes have to be confirmed by multiple nearby data centers, if a location goes offline they have to be able to go to a near one, etc. So they basically have their own clusters/regions.

Workers run everywhere. On every location shown on that map. Granted, you need a special license and Enterprise feature to use the China ones.

You definitely can via R2. The blog post specifically says it, in my (not a lawyer) opinion the terms pretty clearly say you can by saying specific paid products can bypass the limitation, and the dev plat terms saying R2 is one of those specific products, and numerous employees have said it's fine, and I've heard cases of people pushing PBs of data per month without any issue. I have no doubt about that at least.

Yea.. the blog post and the terms don't exactly align. Looking at the Terms only, they say "specific Paid Services" and in the Developer Platform Terms, further say

> The Cloudflare Developer Platform consists of the following Services: (i) Cloudflare Workers, a Service that permits developers to deploy and run encapsulated versions of their proprietary software source code (each a “Workers Script”) on Cloudflare’s edge servers; (ii) Cloudflare Pages, a JAMstack platform for frontend developers to collaborate and deploy websites; (iii) Cloudflare Queues, a managed message queuing service; (iv) Workers KV, D1, Durable Objects, Vectorize, Hyperdrive, and R2, storage offerings used to serve HTML and non-HTML content...

Key part being the last bit there, they specifically call out products which can be used to serve non-html content as part of the Dev Plat, and Workers is not one of them.

Cloudflare employees in the past have specifically and repeatedly say CDN in front of R2 is fine, but nothing about Workers except really old posts that predate the ToS changes and the blog post.

I think that is pretty unlikely. HN doesn't use Cloudflare at all as far as I know, and not to downplay the scope of the outage, but Cloudflare's core CDN Offering is fine. Other core services such as Cloudflare Pages/Workers/KV are also fine. This is mostly addon/developer products, the biggest of which (imo) being R2. If you log out, it loads a lot faster (at least the main/cached pages)

Shrinkflation effects everything, now even the Clouds are getting smaller!

Not a bad price bump, and support for Annual paying is nice.

Maybe it's because you have your funding source as your bank account, but I was never asked to provide my SSN with a debit card funding source.
