News Summary:

A major network disruption on June 22, 2026, which caused widespread access problems across numerous online services including X, Reddit, Discord, Zoom, Canva, Microsoft Teams, Robinhood, and Fortnite, was tied to Zayo Group routing issues and a reported fiber cut in eastern North America. Earlier on June 22, Cloudflare attributed spiking outage reports for services such as X, Reddit, Fortnite, and Zoom, affecting thousands of users shortly before 3 p.m., to a Zayo network routing outage, stating it observed no global failure. This followed Cloudflare's earlier statement on the same day that it was investigating a fiber cut in Eastern North America after popular internet services experienced issues. Separately, on June 18, Zayo completed its largest acquisition to date, purchasing Crown Castle’s Fiber Solutions business to provide customers with a more powerful and reliable network.
