Wow, pico.sh looks very enticing.
I found it last night after reading Brennan’s post, Free Speech and the IndieWeb, which discusses the reasons he doesn’t use Cloudflare. See also his longer post on this topic.

In particular, we looked for evidence that Claude—like the OpenAI models that accessed Hugging Face—was able to access the internet from within testing environments that should have been sealed off.
After reviewing 141,006 evaluation runs where Claude could have obtained internet access, we ide…
