>As discussed, we found that your case could be part of a global scale incident wherein multiple Dynamics services were rendered inaccessible due to a suspected Azure DDoS attack. This issue started at approximately 21:30 UTC on 1st April 2021 and, along the symptoms, our customers may experience intermittent issues accessing Microsoft services, including Azure, Dynamics, and Power Automate. On this regard, the Microsoft teams involved have rerouted traffic to separate resilient DNS services and are seeing improvement in service availability. With this confirmation, as agreed, I will proceed to lower the severity of this case and transfer it for an agent working in your time zone to continue following up with you and confirm these services have returned to an expected operational state.
So it's just a mess.
Look at the comments on any entry and it’s clear people do stuff like report “outages” for Google because a random website won’t work in Chrome.
There’s a comment on the AWS page complaining that iTunes gift cards are being slow to arrive. The Google page has people who think the comments are the place to talk to Google support.
A major outage will make itself known in far clearer ways.
The website simply answers the question "is anyone else having trouble accessing this?" In practice that's all it does, and that is useful.
I wish those companies would actually have status pages.
