Introducing Warp: Fixing Mobile Internet Performance and Security (6 minute read)
Last year, Cloudflare launched their 1.1.1.1 service on April 1, aiming to create the fastest, most secure, and most privacy-respecting DNS server on the internet. Today, 1.1.1.1 is now about to become the second largest public DNS service on the internet, with half the latency of Google's servers, while still upholding its values of privacy and security. In November, Cloudflare launched a mobile app for 1.1.1.1 in preparation for today's launch of Warp. Warp is a new service designed for mobile internet and is essentially a VPN that will encrypt all data traffic, rather than just DNS traffic. It also has features that will help mobile users save data and battery. While Cloudflare aimed to launch Warp in its entirety today, there were some issues with the rollout. However, users can still sign up to a waiting list through the 1.1.1.1 app.
