FuboTV

FuboTV was targeted in a cyber attack that caused a streaming outage that prevented subscribers from watching the World Cup Qatar 2022 semifinal match between France and Morocco.

As the users were getting ready to watch the World Cup semifinal, FuboTV subscribers found that they could not log in to the streaming service.

They were greeted with a CB_ERR_OPEN error, stating "ff: downstream not available," when attempting to log in.

FuboTV soon tweeted that they were working on the issue and recommended subscribers stream the game through FOX.

However, FuboTV was able to recover its services in a relatively short period.
