So this seems to be the third outage of a cloud service that takes EVERYTHING down. This is why I am not a fan of the cloud! I get the cost services that it brings, but having everything centralized like this just makes attacks so easy.

Yes, this is actually very revealing and almost seems intentional. I didn't realize how many sites use this service.
The files get released. And this happens
Yeah, I noticed this morning “The Direct” website is down.
I go there to get updates on future Sci-Fi, Superhero releases.

Apparently, most of the sites I visit use Cloudflare.
That's wild. It's almost like AWS and Cloudflare are running nearly ~40% of all major services. Probably more than that.
Remember the CrowdStrike outage too, differing components that bring the internet to a crawl when they go down.
Yeah, we are starting to see how fragile the internet is, which is way worse than I thought.
I'm still old school and run my sites on home servers.
These outages weren’t a problem until immigrants became prominent in domestic IT roles.
Are you being serious? That’s one of those statements where it’s either serious or sarcastic.
Immigrants??!?! Where have you been for the last 30 years?!
Cloudflare outage impacts thousands, disrupts transit systems, ChatGPT, X and more
Internet infrastructure provider Cloudflare says it is investigating an issue that caused outages for social media platform X, some multiplayer games and ChatGPT.
MASTERBAKER will be posting this as BREAKING NEWS six hours from now....... with giant pictures and everything......bumping it himself at least a dozen times.....
.
Got into work morning meeting was all about the panic calls coming in, one of my Jr techs was laughing his ass off cause last month he was joking about what would happen if Cloudflare dropped and here we are. People really don't know how deep Cloudflare, Akamai and a few others are the foundation for alot of services. People didn't pay much attention to the AWS outage last month like they should have.
