A widespread internet outage struck several global digital platforms Tuesday, leaving millions of users unable to access services like X, OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Perplexity AI, Google Cloud, and Canva.

Popular gaming titles League of Legends and Valorant were also impacted.

The disruption has been traced back to a critical network failure at Cloudflare, a web infrastructure company that powers a significant portion of the internet.

“Cloudflare is experiencing an internal service degradation. Some services may be intermittently impacted. We are focused on restoring service. We will update as we are able to remediate. More updates to follow shortly,” Cloudflare’s system status site showed, identifying the problem as a “global network issue” causing widespread API and dashboard failures.
