Really this should read, "Telia having problems in EU".

They are a big transit providing, clearly causing issues for quite a few services in all directions.

Some content providers use Telia to reach the Internet in part or full.

Some ISPs use Telia to reach the Internet or parts of it.

More like, "Half of websites having problems in the EU".

Cloudflare is that big.

CF seems fair, redundancy is a thing.

Following the same logic, every website is responsible for itself.

Extrapolating ad absurdum, yes, but at Cloudflare's scale there should be enough redundancy that a single carrier couldn't bring it down.

I don't understand people taking it to Twitter to moan about it. Shit happens and it only happens 0.001% of the time in this instance.
