Cloudflare is more than anti DDoS, they’re a major piece of infrastructure that like a third of the web goes through, and the best DNS provider. Generally pretty rad, too, you get an insane amount of stuff for free. Pretty crazy to have an outage like this.

According to one of their guys on hackernews it wasn’t an attack, just a dodgy router in Atlanta?

Yep, from their sitequote:This afternoon we saw an outage across some parts of our network. It was not as a result of an attack. It appears a router on our global backbone announced bad routes and caused some portions of the network to not be available. We believe we have addressed the root cause and are monitoring systems for stability now.

Iron Chef Ramen posted:oh cool, a large portion of the internet is beholden to "a dodgy router in Atlanta" Yeah. The internet was designed specifically to withstand nuclear war, so it's capable of insane decentralisation. But decentralisation is more expensive than centralisation. For example we are posting on this forum instead of to our self-hosted blogs because self hosting is a hassle and we probably wouldn't even find each other's blogs. So for the exact same reasons we end up with these massive private utilities that create massive weak spots for the non-theoretical internet. Every attempt to re-decentralise so far hasn't gone great. Mastodon is no Twitter, Diaspora is a long, long way from Facebook, Bitcoin just ended up being bank accounts, and no-one uses DDNS. Email is basically the only dominant distributed service left and it's utterly dominated by the utilities and their rules on acceptable sending and content display. It's also under attack by Slack and the like too.

Would decentralization lead to more security on the user end? If so, I could imagine it's in nobody's, government or private, interest to pursue it.
