English translation (Google translate) --- The cases made ​​in the Unified Register of banned information network addresses CDN- service CloudFlare. This is due to the active use of this service sites - Russian law violators . When trying to determine the hosting provider such websites whois services indicate ip- address CloudFlare, concealing information about the location of your hosting provider , providing accommodation in this Internet site.

This complicates the interaction Roskomnadzora with this hosting provider and virtually eliminates the possibility of timely removal of illegal information to regain access to locked resources .

CloudFlare representatives refuse to cooperate and do not respond to legal notices Roskomnadzora .

In the absence of reaction on the part of many conscientious CloudFlare Internet Resources using this CDN- service fall under lock operators on the territory of the Russian Federation.

To avoid such situations , it is recommended to place web- sites on the capacities of local hosting providers who operate in good faith and in a timely manner the Russian legislation restricting access to Internet resources with information dissemination in the Russian Federation is prohibited.

ShaneOG··on Facebook CPC – Don't Waste Your Money
> Google also lets me target only Desktop users. If Facebook would allow this same control, I could run this test again with more confidence.

FB do let you set a Desktop Only audience for ads. You need to use Power Editor (Google Chrome only) and select Desktop under Placements.

I'd like to see a re-run with Desktop targeting only.

ShaneOG··on Ask HN: Why did this shut the entire network down?
The cable was probably already plugged into the same switch. You caused a hard-loop.

It was probably an unmanaged switch. An unmanaged switch cannot participate in spanning-tree, and therefore cannot detect the hard loop. Because the loop wasn't detected it caused a broadcast storm, bringing down the network.
