> Imagine what people would say about Cloudflare if they had an hour long outage

That Cloudflare had an outage. Not America.

    You probably mean the USA? After all, it was China and not Asia which was responsible for the incident ;)

outage would mean a connection timeout

in this case, the connection works fine, some extra RST+ACK packets were delivered to your network on purpose

  • Which could easily be explained by a buggy rollout to their great firewall. What does China gain from intentionally blocking SSL for one hour?

I mean... it got blocked by their censorship infrastructure, does it really matter if it only got misconfigured?
