  • Description (100 - 250 words): Cloudflare WARP is a VPN-like encrypted tunnel designed to secure traffic between your device and Cloudflare’s network. While it doesn’t always behave like a classic location-shifting VPN, it provides encrypted transport and can reduce exposure on public Wi-Fi. It typically uses WireGuard-based tunneling (implementation details vary), modern secure transport and emphasizes stability when switching between Wi-Fi and cellular, making it attractive as an always-on layer for mobile browsing. Some users combine it with DNS filtering or other privacy tools, depending on their threat model. For DVPN readers, it’s a reminder that “VPN” can mean different privacy promises.
