Holy shit, this could be a company-ending event. For CloudFlare or any of its clients.

Their clients, sure, especially they are HIPAA regulated (let's pour one out for the poor sods) but CF only if everyone abandons them and many won't. Gross negligence does not even exist online AFAIK and so criminally you can't even start because there's nothing to work with, perhaps negligence but that's a slap on the wrist. A civil suit ... sure you can sue anyone in civil court for whatever but you need to prove damages here and that'll be bloody hard.
