Idk, this one is pretty bad. Unprecedented even.

Do you not recall when Amazon lost their S3 service in us-east1-1 region back in 2017? That caused cascading failure across the Internet for a good part of the day…

That was pretty bad too, but once service is restored, things should just need to be restarted. With this, tons of machines needed manual intervention, and perhaps on-prem intervention.

I did none of those things, I shopped just like normal and all the services I use on my devices worked like normal. Zero impact for me.
