A widespread server overload caused a significant disruption to several websites worldwide, leaving thousands of users unable to access their favorite online services. The problem occurred when the number of requests to these servers exceeded their capacity, resulting in a temporary blackout.
The affected sites included popular social media platforms, e-commerce websites, and news outlets. Users experienced error messages “429 Too Many Requests” and were unable to load web pages.
The cause of the issue is still being investigated, but experts speculate that it may be related to increased traffic or a surge in concurrent requests from users. The developers are working to resolve the problem as quickly as possible and restore normal access to their services.
