It was just a dark thought.
“Ai agents have already effectively taken over the majority of internet traffic on Cloudflare’s network, making up roughly 60% of total volume.”

That graphic is all wrong. Aws and Cloudflare are multi billion dollar corporations, they are the giant rectangles. The little thing is curl made by daniel steinberg for free, and that is used by virtually every computer to comunicate to servers.
I’m pretty sure curl is developed by a team these days even if Steinberg is project leader. And he doesn’t do it for free anymore. But your point stands.
I also seem to remember that “random person from Nebraska” from the original XKCD is real. Oh yes, ImageMagick. Here’s an interesting article that also seems to reflect OP’s edit:
Curl is rock solid bro, it’s a big rectangle for sure.
This drawing was literally made to be about curl. Yeah it is very rrliable. Thats why it is used
It’s also not really that tiny at 180,000 lines of code.
180000 is probably 0.00001% of aws or cloudflarr. Aws and cloudflare pribably use curl themselves
I wonder why curl and not wget though.
