I don’t think the internet is having an outage...I think Fastly is having an outage and it’s effecting a bunch of websites that are hosted there.

ETA: Fastly’s last tweet yesterday - “ App security is too important to be an afterthought — you need to find a new way to ensure protection without impeding innovation.

To move forward, security and DevOps will need to work together to solve the challenges they face”

I guess I do not know this as I avoid a lot of these sites.

I’m good.

The GME and superStonk groups on Reddit went into their emergency alternative modes. They have been expecting attacks as the stock starts to ramp up in the real squeeze.

Also, many found that by using a VPN and testing out different access points, they can get in.

I got in using an Atlanta address.

I normally go way clear of reddit. It is typically a leftist cess pool, but the LINK / (Game Stop) and the r/GME threads have been amazing. Politics is discouraged, so their is limited lefty nonsense that can be easily ignored.

Are we sure that the outage isn't "affecting" prominent websites right now?
