alt Hacker NewsThis is the kind of comment I wish he would ignore.
You can be angry - but that doesn't help anyone. They fucked up, yes, they admitted it and they provided plans on how to address that.
I don't think they do these things on purpose. Of course given their good market penetration they end up disrupting a lot of customers - and they should focus on slow rollouts - but I also believe that in a DDOS protection system (or WAF) you don't want or have the luxury to wait for days until your rule is applied.

Maybe not on purpose but there's such a thing as negligence.
I hope he doesn't ignore it, the internet has been forgiving enough toward cloudflares string of failures..its getting pretty old, and creates a ton of choas. I work with life saving devices, being impacted in any way in data monitoring has a huge impact in many ways. "sorry ma'am we can't give your child t1d readings on your follow app because our provider decided to break everything in the pursuit of some react bug." has a great ring to it
