.

Edit - cloudflare now says it was a misconfigured config, not a DOS attack as they initially reported

    Most of the reporting I have seen suggests a massive traffic spike. Do you have some more information about the config file?

    "30 minutes"- me when I lie on the internet. Where did you get that number? You realize we can check the news and see that big sites like x and chatgpt were down like 4 hours? Not only that, they said themselves it was not an attack but a misconfiguration. News were reporting it fixed around evening utc while the issue popped up around noon. That's not a 30 min outage and is a huge failure.
