Let's start a betting pool. How many upvotes do you think OP will get before the status page acknowledges a problem? I say its going to be 600.

You lost. ;) 476 points, status page says it's down now.
As one would expect, it says "degraded performance" instead of "down" lol
Tested with tor and it's right. Some exit nodes aren't affected.
Hm, maybe it's just the SRE in me talking, but if major chunks of the internet being entirely inaccessible doesn't count as an "outage", what does?
I mean, I guess your entitled to look at it that way, but I don't think it's dishonest of them to distinguish between "nothing is working" and "some regions aren't working".
There is no problem from the Asia site (well, it was in the wee hour, but my monitor doesn't see any problem here from Singapore)
This post is getting something like 30 upvotes a minute…might want to up that a bit ;)
And it looks like they started "investigating" at around 450!
