Cloudflare’s bot-detection ML system expected a limited number of features, but a database permissions change caused the feature file to suddenly contain far more features than allowed. This overflow caused the bot-detection module to crash, which in turn disrupted Cloudflare’s core traffic.

There are a _lot_ of #sqlfamily authors in this list.

Apparently, if your book is in there, you could be entitled to compensation from Anthropic.
