Whether you’re using a Mac, iPhone, or—shudder— a PC, dozens of popular internet services in both the United States and western Europe are down right now, or at least acting slowly and erratically.
This sort of thing is often due to an outage with Amazon Web Services, but this time, it’s definitely a bit broader than that. A quick look at DownDetector.com and the ThousandEyes Outages sites show huge problems across a large host of services. It’s not just Slack and Reddit—it’s also Microsoft 365 services, including Outlook, as well as Azure hosting, Cloudflare, gaming networks, Gmail…you name it, it’s got a problem.
