internet outage

Beavers have been to blame for two bouts of service trouble in as many years in British Columbia.
A botched update by Akamai, a behind-the-scenes network provider, disrupted numerous websites Thursday.
Dozens of high-traffic sites, including the New York Times and CNN, could not be reached due to the cloud service company's outage.
The outage affected internet and cloud providers as well as major sites such as Google and Facebook.
