porty

I would feel pretty safe running my own hand-written services against the raw Internet, but if I was to host Wordpress or other large/complicated/legacy codebases I'd start to get worried. Also the CDN aspect is useful - having lived in Australia you like connections that don't have to traverse continents for every request.

In that case you can turn off / not turn on the WAF feature(s) of Cloudflare - it's optional and configured by the webmaster.

I've been fined a few times. I eventually figured out that if you don't speed you don't get fines :)

I find that enforced speeding fines (which doesn't seem to happen in the US) causes drivers to drive at different speeds, whether an individual at that speed is safe or not. Inconsistent driving speeds is a lot more difficult to drive in.

If I had a vote (which I don't) I'd say increase all the limits by 10 mph (to reflect what people are doing now) but then also fine people that are speeding (like +2mph).

I'm going to need your home country for comparison - I find what you're saying here sounds a lot more like California (where I live now) than Australia.

I've been living in the US for 4 years now (from Australia) and I find driving in the US, with their inconsistent-to-nonexistent speeding fines have caused driving to be a real pain - everyone drives at different speeds, mostly 10+ mph over.

Went to Australia last month - driving was so nice (yes, also to the Gold Coast). Everyone does the same speed (more or less); you can see cars in your mirrors and know they're going to be roughly in the same spot a second or two later when changing lanes :) :)
