   This is a very good solution for HTTP(S) tunneling - which is the most frequently needed tunnel. However if you want to play a game, or use SSH, then Pinggy tunnels are very simple to use. One command:

   ssh -p 443 -R0:localhost:443 tcp@free.pinggy.io

   Disclosure: Co-founder of pinggy.io here.

   Edit: I meant TCP tunnels, UDP tunnels, or also TLS tunnels for end-to-end encryption.

         So you don't know my IP (DDoS target), and because of NAT.

            I think tonymet meant he didn't understand why cloudflare didn't allow using ssh -R instead of cloudflared to create the tunnel, not not using a tunnel at all.

               precisely (thanks!)
