Why would you think this outage is (internet) BGP related?

Cloudflare runs all their own bare metal servers. Seems odd that they would be impacted by Google cloud. Same can be said for all the other issues on downdetector. This points to a broad issue at the core internet which could certainly be related to BGP.

Cloudflare is now saying:

"Cloudflare’s critical Workers KV service went offline due to an outage of a 3rd party service that is a key dependency."

I really hope CF explains this apparent Google dependecy in detail in their post mortem.

Imagine it's just a google spanner wrapper lmao
