When I am trying to access services hosted on cloudflare I am getting Error 500. It is not for a single site, it is for most of the sites. Is someone else also facing the same issue?
Please see the screenshot linked below.
Yes Cloudflare is down which means half the Internet is down!
half of my goto sites isnt accessible at the moment. internal server error 
Another website is down. Ironically it is downdetector.com. 
I am seeing it is widespread down this morning. Many sites that I follow are down due to it.
20% of internet is hosted on cloudflare servers.
I hope it is not something similar to the recent Microsoft Azure outage.
Or the past cloud strike update which caused an outage in Cloudflare hosted websites last year.
Earlier even that was down.
A few days ago Microsoft Azure was hit by a massive 15.72 Tbps DDoS attack. I hope this is not a DDoS attack.
15.72 Tbps, Terra Bits per second. How do you get so much bandwidth to MS Azure servers? I mean it is mind boggling.
Explain it to me as if I were 5 
PS. Thanks GAUD EOS’ forum is up. I couldn’t take one more 500 error. Though my therapist would rejoice 
For at least the second time in three days. Are we surprised, NO. A lot of us screamed that they were a bad idea.
Wow, they haven’t aged a bit 
BRUH!!
Who cares about outage /// thx to them glowies - privacy in any browser including Tor is null in 2025.
They have stable cross-device fingerprint for any browser that you use.
And it’s impossible to opt-out, because half of the internet is infected with dat crap through their DNS / CDN / DDOS-mitigation!
/// Cloudflare is what they call a global threat actor ///
And worst part - anyone can buy access via fingerprint.com !!!
MIC DROP!!!
Well with exit IP or VPN IP the address of target can be identified to within a radius of 50-100 kms. Once that is done the actual timezone can be determined very easily. If using IPV6 then this radius comes down even more and possibly to a block or to a few square kilometers. That is expected. With ping response time profiling, cloudflare should be able to narrow it down even more.
This is applicable for all CDNs and web hosting companies. Nothing unique to Cloudflare.
Also jumping across various IP addresses does not lead to obfuscation of the origin of request. As long as screen resolution fingerprinting, browser identification fingerprinting are still in play.
All we can expect is a reasonable level of privacy. If we want complete or absolute privacy, then the ONLY way is to quit internet and use a wired copper landline only. No Fiber or phone connected to modem. An additional step is to stay as far away as possible from ad supported businesses and services. Want to chat with friends, share memes and express outrage, pay for a chat application and make your friends use it. Ditto for email. Want to watch videos without profiling, stick to nebula, magellan and similar websites. Avoid YouTube, reels, insta, etc.
