Downdetector says aws and gcp are down too. Might be in for a fun day.

From what I can tell, Downdetector just tracks traffic to their pages without actually checking if the site is down.

The other day during the AWS outage they "reported" OVH down too.

yea I saw that, but im not sure on how accurate that is. a few large apps/companies I know to be 100% on AWS in us-east-1 are cranking along just fine.

Not sure if this is true. I just login to the console with no glitch.
