    But apparently it was something one of their "customers" did, by simply changing some settings.

    Yeah, that's a good one. "It was one user all by himself, nothing do to with us f**king things up, we were the ones that fixed it."

    Unless the Product Owner told a fib when he said that the change had been tested…

    They’ll probably split the difference and have PO vacancies up there with the ChM.

    I'm not sure I'd want HM Gov spending £m on the hardware and technical resources required to provide a CDN of the same quality and performance as that offered by Fastly and the other key players in the industry.

    I'm sure if they ( Fastly ) continue to be unreliable, then people will switch to another provider.

    The UK gov website I'm currently working on is still up

    It's not one that can be accessed by the public though, so you'll just have to take my word for it
