Cloudflare analysis confirms Turkmenistan IP changes
🔍 Cloudflare researchers revisited historic telemetry to assess reports that Turkmenistan experienced an unprecedented easing of IP address blocking in mid‑2024 and may have been testing a new firewall. Using Radar metrics, they observed a clear surge in HTTP requests beginning in mid‑June, alongside shifts in TCP reset and timeout patterns. These connection anomalies manifested at different stages of the TCP lifecycle across multiple autonomous systems, and while the data cannot provide attribution, the observed patterns are consistent with large‑scale filtering or firewall testing.
