An apparent internet service outage has disrupted operations on countless major websites including Google, Spotify, and Amazon Web Services.

Around midday Thursday, outage monitoring service DownDetector.com reported widespread service disruptions across commonly used platforms like SnapChat and YouTube, with many social media users reporting difficulty accessing several sites.

Some notable web services experiencing disruptions include: Spotify, Discord, Google and related services like Google Maps, Amazon Web Services, Cloudflare, SnapChat, YouTube, OpenAI, CharacterAI, FuboTV, Etsy, Vimeo, UPS, Shopify, Microsoft Azure, Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Google Gemini, DoorDash, Calendly, Paramount+, IKEA, Twitch andMicrosoft 365.

One of these days we are going to wake up and nothing will work. It will be chaos on a level we have not seen yet.

Hmm, Iran, China, or Russia, doing a little testing of their cyberwarfare?

I never thought of it in light of Saturday, but what a way to disrupt government and LE communications.

However, it would disrupt them, too.
