1m ago15.02 GMT A recap of the Cloudflare outages Key sites around the world went down, some for a few hours, after a widely relied-upon Internet infrastructure company suffered an outage The outages took place in the early hours of US morning and during UK business hours It affected users of everything from Spotify, ChatGPT, X, Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Canva to retail websites of Visa, Vodafone and Vinted and UK grocery chains Asda and M&S. Cloudflare said at 11:48 GMT that it was investigating and working on a fix. It declared the incident resolved nearly three hours later. The US company provides protection and defensive services to millions of sites, and claims to handle a fifth of web traffic. Cloudflare said it had to temporarily disable some services for UK users in its attempts to fix the outages on Tuesday. “Some customers may be still experiencing issues logging into or using the Cloudflare dashboard. We are working on a fix to resolve this, and continuing to monitor for any further issues.” https://www.theguardian.com/technol...down-internet-outage-latest-live-news-updates
Funny part for me this morning was I normally look on downdetector for any outages, but even that was down. I'm like ffs,
Yeah global outage mate, affecting certain websites, us included. Cloudflare have hopefully fixed it now, despite promising earlier it had been fixed when it hadn't and was clearly a bigger issue. Also took out bet365.
We don’t need to hear your excuses. Should’ve asked Bobby to have a word and we’d have been up and running within ten minutes.
