Cloudflare Outage Sparks Global Internet Chaos

"THE CLOUDFLARE COLLAPSE BY NUMBERS: 
OUTAGE SEVERITY: - Global scope across ALL timezones - 11,000+ reports in USA (first hour) - 3,800+ reports in UK (first hour) - Multiple critical services failed simultaneously ERROR TYPES REPORTED: - HTTP 500 (Internal Server Error) 
Cloudflare, the world’s leading web infrastructure and security company, confirmed that it was experiencing a significant issue with its Global Network in the early hours of Tuesday morning, causing widespread outages across the internet. The problem has affected various services, including social media platform X, OpenAI’s ChatGPT, and the outage monitoring site Downdetector among many other sites and apps experiencing problems. Even some news sites, including Axios, appear to be completely unreachable as of this writing due to the Cloudflare outage — visitors are asked to “unblock” a Cloudflare address to proceed.
According to Cloudflare’s System Status page, the company is currently investigating the issue, which is causing HTTP 500 errors that impact the Cloudflare dashboard and API. These server-level errors indicate that the problem lies within Cloudflare’s infrastructure, rather than with individual websites or servers.? ZeroHedge
