This is, of course, hilarious. If a single traffic spike can bring CloudFlare down for hours, and with it innumerable websites and services, what exactly is the point of CloudFlare?

Yes, I understand that a way smaller traffic spike would probably bring any individual website down if they were all hosted separately. Sure.

But bringing them *all* down at the same time would be impossible. That's resilience through independence.

#CloudFlare is a single point of failure, and it keeps failing.
