Summary

Cloudflare is celebrating its 8th birthday by launching a new initiative called Encrypted SNI (ESNI), which aims to make the encrypted web more private and secure. The company has partnered with Apple, Fastly, Mozilla, and others across the industry to develop ESNI as an IETF Draft RFC. This protocol will help protect users' browsing history by preventing ISPs from spying on Server Name Indication (SNI) data. Firefox is expected to become the first browser to support ESNI in their Nightly release, with other major browser makers likely to follow suit.
