   After partial outages in the past couple of weeks, a CenturyLink IP   
   misconfiguration wreaked havoc across the global network and knocked   
   out multiple providers, including Cloudflare, Amazon, Reddit, Hulu and   
   others.

   Internet service provider CenturyLink suffered a major outage on   
   Sunday in the U.S. that affected widely used online services. The   
   outage, which struck down Cloudflare, the PlayStation Network, EA,   
   Xbox Live, Reddit, Blizzard, Steam, Amazon, Hulu, Duo Security, and   
   others, was caused by a problem of a third-party transit provider --   
   CenturyLink. The problem caused HTTP 5xx class errors like HTTP 522,   
   502, 503, according to the status update page of Cloudflare, which   
   took down Discord, Feedly, League of Legends among others.
