Title: Is Baidu ripping off CloudFlare? *PICS*
Post by: Bizmark13 on January 20, 2015, 03:36:59 AM
Baidu's Jiasule or "Cloud Acceleration" is an online security platform designed to speed up websites and protect them against DDoS attacks. In terms of functionality, it's very similar to CloudFlare although the latter is an American company while Jiasule was developed in-house by Internet giant Baidu (aka. China's "Google"). On October 15, 2013, Jiasule made headlines when they announced that they were going to be accepting Bitcoin. Both sites also use a picture of a cloud as their logo.

Here are the error pages for Jiasule (click to expand):

And here's what the error page for CloudFlare looks like in comparison (click to expand):

Inspired by Cloudflare's error page I guess. People are familiar with it already, and there really isn't much you can change as far as diagrams go. It's a good design.

Yeah, they're good at making replicas of almost all the things, just like their phones.

could be powered by cloudflare, as there was speculation they are going to partner this year anyway.

Chinese don't care about any laws the USA have. They even hack big corporations and even CIA and FBI and stole confidential data. Cyber crimes is no issue to them if they do it to other countries. lol
