Major Cloudflare Outage Sparks Global Disruptions Across Popular Platforms A significant Cloudflare service disruption yesterday temporarily impacted access to major online platforms including ChatGPT, X, and a number of widely used apps and websites. The issue, which began early in the morning U.S. time, was traced to an internal configuration problem rather than a cyberattack, according to Cloudflare. Engineers deployed a fix within several hours, leading to gradual recovery of services. The incident has raised questions about dependency on centralized internet infrastructure providers, as thousands of users worldwide were suddenly unable to access essential digital services. Do you think the internet is becoming too dependent on a few major infrastructure companies? @LinkUpaddis
