 ## Using Cloudflare's Services
 
-Cloudflare launched in 2010 believing everyone deserves a secure, fast, reliable web presence. We did not think you should have to pay more when you came under cyber attack, so we offered free and fixed-rate pricing for websites. That worked because most websites don't consume much bandwidth, and so we could provide our services in an affordable way to everyone. From the beginning, we prohibited streaming video content using our bandwidth. While you could embed a video from another provider, we limited your ability to use our services to deliver video bits from our network to your visitors. This is because every second of a typical video requires as much bandwidth as loading a full web page.

This restriction exists because every second of a typical video requires as much bandwidth as loading a full web page.
 
 Over time we recognized that some of our customers wanted to stream video using our network. To accommodate them, we developed our [Stream](https://www.cloudflare.com/products/cloudflare-stream/) product. Stream delivers great performance at an affordable rate charged based on how much load you place on our network.

 ### Open ports versus blocked traffic
 
-There is a difference between open ports and blocked traffic. Due to the nature of how Cloudflare’s anycast network works, ports other than 80 and 443 are always open so that Cloudflare can serve traffic for other customers on these ports. However, customers can easily block all unwanted traffic to these ports by using Cloudflare [WAF Managed Rules](/fundamentals/reference/network-ports/#how-to-block-traffic-on-additional-ports) or [custom rules](/waf/custom-rules/). The PCI scan will show the ports being open, but the traffic would not reach your origin server. This is an often misunderstood concern.

-Ideally, because Cloudflare is a reverse proxy, your hosting provider observes attack traffic connecting from [Cloudflare IP addresses](https://www.cloudflare.com/ips/). In contrast, if you notice connections from IP addresses that do not belong to Cloudflare, the attack is direct to your origin web server. Cloudflare cannot stop attacks directly to your origin IP address because the traffic bypasses Cloudflare’s network.
