Strange possible coincidence yesterday evening my iPhone screen kept going on by itself and it would display (with a play button) some weird URL that started with https://airtv and then had fastly somewhere in it.

Connected? I know, vague. It's just I've never heard of fastly until yesterday when this happened and today I see some kind of outage notice on hackernews :)

If it's working right, you wouldn't hear about it ;)

And if it's broken... well, yeah, I'd expect dependencies with poor error handling to behave unexpectedly.

Considering the way people toss around the cloud services they use like they were merit badges in the HN commments, I'd say no, if it is working right, someone who frequents this site should have definitely heard of it..
