Agreed, I feel bad for them. But mostly because cloudflare's workflows are so bad that you're seemingly repeatedly set up for really public failures. Like how does this keep happening without leadership's heads rolling. The culture clearly is not fit for their level of criticality

How often do you hear of Akamai going down and they host a LOT more enterprise/high value sites than Cloudflare.

There's a reason Cloudflare has been really struggling to get into the traditional enterprise space and it isn't price.

		A quick google turned up an Akamai outage in July that took Linode down and two in 2021. At that scale nobody's going to come up smelling like roses. I mostly dealt with Amazon crap at megacorp, but nobody that had to deal with our Akamai stuff had anything kind to say about them as a vendor. At first blush it's getting harder to "defend" use of Cloudflare, but I'll wait until we get some idea of what actually broke. For the time being I'll save my outrage for the AI scrapers that drove everyone into Cloudflare's arms.
