Cloudflare outage eases after hitting Canva, X, Grindr and ChatGPT
Cloudflare runs one of the world's largest networks that helps websites and apps load faster and stay online by protecting them from traffic surges and cyberattacks.
A global outage at web-infrastructure firm Cloudflare began to ease on Tuesday after preventing thousands from accessing major internet platforms, including X and ChatGPT.
Cloudflare, whose network handles around a fifth of web traffic, said it started to investigate the internal service degradation around 6:40am ET. It has deployed a fix but some customers might still be impacted as it recovers service.
