Speedtest has always seemed incredibly sketchy to me, i don’t know if others share this sentiment. https://fast.com completed the test faster than speedtest loads the site

    Fast.com is from Netflix. They do it so ISP serve Netflix faster since ISP were gaming speed test sites. I’m assuming that’s the same case for cloudflare speed test.

I like how they've rebranded from "Big 3 consulting firm Anderson Consulting wrought with scandal" to "IT service provider Accenture"

Btw, Cloudflare has a Speed Test at https://speed.cloudflare.com
