Notes

"Since there was no immediate change to the production network there was no end-user impact, and because there was no impact, no alerts were fired."

They really have no external monitoring on public services like 1.1.1.1?

Post from Cloudflare:

On July 14th, 2025, Cloudflare made a change to our service topologies that caused an outage for 1.1.1.1 on the edge, resulting in downtime for 62 minutes for customers using the 1.1.1.1 public DNS Resolver as well as intermittent degradation of service for Gateway DNS.

So it's neither Artificial nor Intelligent?

I recently upgraded all my home network gear and cameras to Ubiquiti stuff that largely uses PoE

Something I hadn't considered with PoE is I can just have the fan-out switch on a UPS and everything else stays powered during an outage without needing UPSes in the attic and other random places

man i am not good with these computers

While fishing ethernet cable through my house this weekend, I found a bunch of these hidden in the walls
