Announcing WARP for Linux and Proxy Mode
Cloudflare has announced the release of WARP for Linux and the ability to use it with single applications instead of an entire device across all desktop platforms. The company's WireGuard implementation, BoringTun, encrypts traffic from devices and sends it directly to Cloudflare's edge, ensuring no one in between is snooping on users' activities. Since nearly everything users do online starts with a DNS request, choosing the fastest DNS server across all devices accelerates almost everything they do online. The new features aim to provide more control over which traffic gets encrypted and sent through Cloudflare's network.
