Zoom, Slack, Coinbase, even Hinge,
0:03
they're all offline at once, and it's
0:05
because of a massive Amazon cloud
0:07
outage. So AWS services have experienced
0:11
a pretty major global issue this
0:14
morning. It's been reported by the
0:16
website Down Detector that they've had 4
0:19
million complaints made. All seem to be
0:22
broadly related to the knock-on effects
0:25
of this outage. There are millions of
0:27
websites, services which supply many
0:30
millions more users all at once and
0:33
they've been taken down. So that's
0:35
affecting HMRC, huge aspects of the
0:40
UK government web infrastructure, even
0:43
banks like Halifax. There have been some
0:46
reports too, unverified reports for now,
0:49
but quite a lot of anecdotal reports
0:51
that people can't even access cash
0:53
points. We're going to have all the
0:55
updates at 6:00 a.m. as the story
0:57
progresses. It looks like it's causing a
0:59
huge amount of Monday morning chaos.
1:02
Hopefully it's sorted quite soon, but as
1:04
I say, we'll have all the updates on our
1:06
website and across our social channels.
