I heard on the radio (remember those?) just yesterday that Chinese hackers had used AI to crash a number of major sites worldwide.

Patriots.win is also down. I believe they have used cloud flair from the beginning due to numerous DDOS attack attacks from the left.

I hope the millions of young men here in the USA who are citizens of India, that now run all of this stuff can sort this out! I am sure none of them have any ill will towards us.</sarcasm>

In a way, it is amusing. The Cloudflare "human verification" intermediate step has likely been playing an interesting "bandwidth" problem for them.
They've wanted to play ICANN domain registrar, verification middleman and more. Sounds like they have found an indigestible snack....
Some sites, when the Cloudflare "wait while we check" stuff comes up is enough for me to move one to some other, less "middleman" site.
In that regard, FR seems to cotton to no middleman. :)

X just came back up for me. We’ll see how long it lasts.

“I heard on the radio (remember those?) just yesterday that Chinese hackers had used AI to crash a number of major sites worldwide.”
CloudFlare is a government censorship tool and on/off stitch. I do not trust our government any more than I trust China. Anyone who does is a fool.

Down Detector is down and cannot report on its own outage. It comes up for me in VA.

Seems like X is back, but I still can't get to my Nation's Benefits site.
I've been having a problem getting past my credit union's CloudFlare "verify you're a human" thingy (error # 106010). Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't for weeks now (I use Brave browser).
The wonders of technology....
