Major news, government and other websites were unavailable early Tuesday after a widely used cloud platform reported issues with its services
Sites including the U.K. government’s main public-services portal and several major U.S. and European news outlets were inaccessible. Down Detector, an internet services tracker, reported a spike in outages just after 6 a.m. Eastern time.
Most of the websites that went down displayed a simple error message in plain text, saying, “Error 503 Service Unavailable,” and including other codes. Joshua Bixby, Fastly’s chief executive, said the company was investigating the issue, but that it was not attack-related.
