Description:
Multiple services like Steam, PSN, Airbnb and more are down as of writing.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

A mass outage has caused multiple large services to go offline - the list includes popular gaming platforms Steam and the PlayStation Network as well
as Call of Duty, Warframe, Airbnb, EA (including FIFA), McDonalds and more.

This is reported via Downdetector , which records spikes in outages for these platforms and more.

Members of the TechRadar team have been able to verify that Steam is down,
the PlayStation network services are unavailable and Airbnb won't let you search for properties.

However, McDonalds seems unaffected in our testing - it's possible that the outage doesn't totally affect services for all websites. Also, some Steam users are reportedly able to access games, though the Steam website itself seems down.

These systems all reportedly use the Akamai Cloud Delivery Network, which seems to be suffering outages right now. There's currently no clear word on when these will return.

This is a breaking story, and we'll update it as more information is
provided or surfaces.
