I'm not sure that's the lesson to learn from this outage. Hell Google resolved the problem in 7 minutes which is as good as you could hope for.

The resulting action should be you have proper disaster recovery, failover, etc.

Not sure I would trust these folks if this is the conclusion they are coming to from this experience. Any cloud provider can/will do this to you.

Google restored access but did not resolve the problem. VM’s were still shut down.

Google resolved the problem in seven minutes for a billion dollar company. Good luck if you are a nobody.

The best you could hope for is that if there is something fishy with your account, you are contacted by Google to address it.
