I'm in the Netherlands btw.

Multiple CDNs have been hit, along with government sites, banks, even small VPS and shared hosts are seeing a drastic uptick in brute force attacks. The info war rages on...

More than the CDN possibly - I am not getting whatsapp images (I wouldn't expect those to be served by CDN, but maybe).

Same here. WhatsApp attachements don’t work either. And I’m having trouble with Instagram.

end-to-ends (notice plural) encrypted images are also served from the CDN.

I assume Facebook uses their own CDN...

I make this assumption based on the migration of Instagram from AWS EC2 instances to their internal infrastructure some time ago.

Yes WhatsApp images and videos can't be downloaded. Tried from London, UK.

Yesterday Cloudflare, today Akamai?

Was Akamai also down or you assumed Facebook still uses Akamai? If the latter, I can say for the last 2 years Facebook didn’t use Akamai to service any geographic location.

lots of stuff not loading on messenger for me

Facebook CDN Is Down
