It's a regional thing. GCP was inaccessible from some Eastern European countries, but up in Western ones.

It was broken from the UK, so it must've been worse than that.

I couldn't load the status page (and now that I can, it's all green anyway - and has been throughout the incident).

No it wasn't, users all around the world reporting issues on https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/google

I'm in the UK and was down here.

Gmail, Google Search, and the GCP Console are intermittently timing out or loading very slowly for me. Our services hosted on GKE and Cloud Run were inaccessible for a short period but seem to have recovered.

YouTube was unable to play videos, too. Also saw an impact on Discord (uploading images very slow).

A peak of 120 reports on Downdetector is basically nothing.

Back up already.

Microsoft teams shows the same hit on downdetector, color me suspicious this is a google problem unless teams has a gcp dependency.
