The Fastly blog does not blame the user. The BBC article kind of suggests it ("One Fastly customer triggered internet meltdown").

The BBC article includes the line "a customer quite legitimately changing their settings had exposed a bug".

That's 'bottom of a locked filing cabinet in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Leopard"'-level stuff compared to the clickbait headline, though.

What's your proposed headline?

That's a great headline for yesterday.

This article details a new piece of information, and the headline reflects that.
