Major Internet Outage Reported

Internet users are facing significant outages across various platforms relying on Cloudflare, such as Zoom, Canva, LinkedIn, and major shopping sites like Shopify and Etsy. Cloudflare, which secures and manages traffic for nearly 20% of websites, previously experienced a major disruption in late November due to a system failure aimed at protecting against DDoS attacks. The cause of the current outages remains unclear, but affected users are encouraged to reach out for assistance. Cloudflare’s CEO, Matthew Prince, has previously apologized for the impact of past outages on internet services.
