| ## Using Cloudflare's Services | |||
|
|
|||
| Cloudflare launched in 2010 believing everyone deserves a secure, fast, reliable web presence. We did not think you should have to pay more when you came under cyber attack, so we offered free and fixed-rate pricing for websites. That worked because most websites don't consume much bandwidth, and so we could provide our services in an affordable way to everyone. From the beginning, we prohibited streaming video content using our bandwidth. While you could embed a video from another provider, we limited your ability to use our services to deliver video bits from our network to your visitors. This is because every second of a typical video requires as much bandwidth as loading a full web page. | |||

@bllchmbrs, just flagging as another one.
Seems like there's ~1 big deletion per PR.

| ### Open ports versus blocked traffic | |||
|
|
|||
| There is a difference between open ports and blocked traffic. Due to the nature of how Cloudflare’s anycast network works, ports other than 80 and 443 are always open so that Cloudflare can serve traffic for other customers on these ports. However, customers can easily block all unwanted traffic to these ports by using Cloudflare [WAF Managed Rules](/fundamentals/reference/network-ports/#how-to-block-traffic-on-additional-ports) or [custom rules](/waf/custom-rules/). The PCI scan will show the ports being open, but the traffic would not reach your origin server. This is an often misunderstood concern. | |||
| Cloudflare's anycast network operates in a way that keeps ports other than 80 and 443 open, allowing it to serve traffic for other customers on these ports. | |||

This pull request addresses various style guide compliance issues across multiple documentation files.
