This morning/afternoon.
Google, Gmail and YouTube are currently all down for many users.
According to DownDetector, the issues started at around 11:56 GMT, and are affecting users worldwide
Google is yet to comment on the issues.
However, of those who reported issues with YouTube, 54% said they couldn’t access the website, 42% couldn’t watch videos and 3% were struggling to log-in.
The Mirror tried to access all three websites and was not able to.

Merry Christmas from Putin

5g
that’s all I’m saying
did you know that most home wifi routers have 5G? Apparently faster speeds but poorer range than the 2.4G
5G mobile and 5GHz Wi-fi have nothing in common.
For one thing you don’t need to be vaccine-chipped to use 5GHz wi-fi.
yahoo.co.uk is going to have a nice day…
wow. p45 for christmas
Problem more likely with an RJ45.
All working fine for me.
ReproBertie, even gmail?
My gmail down. Some twitter discussion of this. Eircom and mail.com working fine. I have a feeling it might be a good idea for people to set up a non-gmail email account.

Scype looks to be still working too. Maybe people who have gmail should turn scype on in case people are trying to contact them through scype. I have a feeling this is only the start though. Twitter next probably. Those who already have websites (like Broadsheet) may fare better as they can communicate through the comments sections making the comments private if necessary.
Strange times… more to come, no doubt!
I think gmail is back up now, but perhaps it’s a warning to archive stuff offline.
With all these Chinese hacks, who knows what might happen! ;-)
At first, I thought you were just having a bit of a laugh. Now I’m starting to worry about you!
Yeah, just emailed another account from Gmail with no issues.
I just emailed BroadSheet at BroadSheet.ie from ReproBertie at Gmail. Get anything?
ReproBertie, got that, gmail back for me too.
Yes!
My Christmas wish has come true.
The implosion of the Internet.
so we can go back to party like its 1999.
Conditioning is over.
BS get ready to sell the sheet’ on the street corners.
I’ll buy one for a pound or 2.
Id even pay a fiver €5.
Give Me Some Truth!
Its not the internet that needs to be got rid of….it’s about half the population of the planet!
Settle down there Thanos.
Haha…true though.
We had the internet in 1999 too.
AOL!
there were 1,800,000,000 fewer people on earth too!
The Express will keep us updated. LOL. https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/science-technology/1372309/Google-down-How-long-will-Google-be-down-for-evg

It’s got all the google logos all over it.
A good reminder to not use any cloud services as your number one saving point for important files. Use external hard drives primarily, then cloud as secondary. These outages will get more common over the next few years.
Sound advice.
Jaysus the media has the horn for this “story”.
I had no problems with any of mine. Blame the Chinese and their deadly Huawei phones.
They may have the contents of my whatsapp, but I have an exceptionally reliable phone. Totally worth it.
