    @Younghogey @GameSpot I guess Amazon had pre-orders up for Prime 4 scheduled for Dec.31st but the listings were pulled down. Until then, Nintendo gets $40 of mine for the nostalgia hit lmfao. Fml

    things like twitter, youtube and etc going down scare me for the future, due to peoples reliance on technology for their homes, like IoT appliances, light bulbs, **** even door locks. one day google and amazon could just decide to shut down the servers for alexa and ghome, (1/2)

    @lexie_mueller This is silly. Isn't this the kind of thing they should have hit you with when you published it? Amazon was bugging another writer over her books and copyrighted covers, which she had paid for. Glad I don't deal with them. Although Smashwords can be a problem at times too.

    I haven't even been using Amazon KDP for a week and they found a problem with my content? I'm trying to find any info while waiting for their reply. It's just a little strange. No warning. No explanation. Some are saying that they have an issue with international authors. idk

    @poguesrulez @AmazonHelp They told me they were, 8 months ago and continue to tell me the same BS every time I call about delivery issues. They just lost my last 3 packages.

    @AmazonHelp There's nothing really they're going to be able to do for my account and customer service chat says I have to phone. @PrimeVideo Can you just tell someone the issue exists?

    @AmazonHelp More than anything we need someone to own this issue as opposed to hiding whine process and bureaucracy.

    Damn you Amazon! Yall let me down. Smh. My daughter's dress for the father daughtrr dance was supposed to be here yesterday, and it aint even ship yet smh.

    last time all these platforms were down wasn't the issue Amazon AWS? $AMZN get on it Youtube, Twitter, Tweetdeck, Instagram - we're gonna have to all go to TikTok soon

    @nelsonepega Amazon was down for me

    @alx If Amazon hosts all these platforms, that may be the issue. Amazon is having issues right now.

    I'm impressed at how an AWS glitch can break half the internet. We apparently live in the United States of Amazon.

  • 1stAvengerBB
    Bobby (@1stAvengerBB) reported

    I am done with @amazon. 3rd order in a month that wasn't delivered. Driver put up an old picture of my porch and said my items were delivered. I have never seen something like that before in my life. What a terrible way of treating customers.

  • lewellen_husker
    Dazed and Confused (@lewellen_husker) reported

    @RepJeffries That is not job creation you liar. Those are people returning to work from Dems shutting down cities. Now talk about Amazon, FedEx and other large companies laying off thousands of workers. Have you ever told the truth in your pathetic life?

  • FromAiden
    Aiden 🐀 (@FromAiden) reported

    @Zvbear It's either a Google or Amazon outage, this site is going under (again) too

  • AlexMarks182
    Black Snow (@AlexMarks182) reported

    @AmazonHelp Every time I use the app to submit some kind of report It’s not working. Do you guys have a phone number or something I can call?

  • BeelzebubTV
    Beelz FlyLord /🇺🇸 En VTuber (@BeelzebubTV) reported

    @Vtuberthings Attack? Mmmm, maybe? No evidence of that yet. But seeing as Amazon Web Services hosts 11% of all websites, an outage at AWS could take out a **** ton of websites at once.

    @Roblox_RTC Yeah, I noticed that on down detector is it like something with Amazon Web services being down again? Hmph a lot of stuff has been down today. ?

  • mpukita
    Mark Pukita (@mpukita) reported

    All y'all freaking out about many web sites seeming to go down simultaneously, there could be a reason & it's not good. There are a small number of cloud computing hosting companies. Amazon (Web Services), Google, Microsoft, IBM. These companies dominate. It's a problem.

  • MicroPunkMe
    Not A Celebrity (@MicroPunkMe) reported

    @PolitiBunny @TRHLofficial It's not Twitter. Massive internet outage affecting Twitter, Google, Amazon and about 23 other big Tech companies.

    @AmazonHelp And that automated question you guys have to narrow down what the customer needs..just have people work the phones..ya know like we used to..some people in suits may have decided that this is more efficient so they could make a few more shareholder dollars..I can say..It sucks

  • DigitalActOfGod
    Nova/Cipher (@DigitalActOfGod) reported

    @based_seattle @Funglenoid My friend just informed me it's an Amazon Web Services problem, so it's affecting all platforms that use AWS. This explains a lot; my work is based on Amazon and it was bugged to the moon and back.

    @Mollyploofkins Our local library stopped being open everyday and is down to 3 days a week. I don't remember the last time I visited it. I pay @amazon so I can borrow books and @audible_com I pay for books to listen to. If the library wanted them I have a butt load of paperback books to share.

  • fouriggz
    Fouriggz (@fouriggz) reported

    @Chesschick01 More likely an issue at the Amazon Webservices data center that runs all those sites.

  • illmatic808
    Notorious$ (@illmatic808) reported

    @AmazonHelp There’s no cache to clear. The issue is that paramount + does not work through dish TV.

  • CaptSassyPants1
    Grey is Sewing (@CaptSassyPants1) reported

    So, let's see, Twitter was down, Instagram was down, YouTube was down, Amazon and other sites are making me sign back in, and heck, for a little while my mom's phone couldn't send or receive calls...Really glad I'm not a conspiracy theorist.

    It's very PsyOp-esk. I'm not buying for one second that the sun caused a burst that only caused certain people on social media to have issues.. NOT the banks, or News Outlets, or Amazon or the Stock Market. So... I'm going to sit back and witness how this is going to play out.
