That seems likely, yes, unless I am misinterpreting the announcement from Azure. I get the impression that the exact date is uncertain, as it has to do with the bankruptcy of Edgio.

meek.azureedge.net is also still advertised:

My iOS apps still use this, since it never went away and people wanted it.
I guess, that is affected, too?

I got an email on 2024-12-05 saying that that Azure CDN from Edgio/Verizon is going to shut down sooner than expected. The shutdown date was supposed to be 2025-11-04, now it is 2024-01-15 (about one month from now).
This affects (at least) snowflake-broker.azureedge.net, which was first set up and is still on Azure CDN with Edgio. I think that snowflake-broker.azureedge.net has not been used by this team since 2021 and https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser-build/-/merge_req.... But it is still getting some use from somewhere, as evidenced by the nonzero monthly bills: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/team/-/wikis/Snowflake-cos... Whatever is out there that is still using snowflake-broker.azureedge.net will likely stop working after 2025-01-15.
