    Weird @Microsoft #outage today. I can’t access @Outlook at all, but some of my coworkers can, but some of their apps don’t work. I am truthfully in the “this really sucks” category. Have things to do.

    @Microsoft @Outlook How is it you have to PAY to protect your accounts location wise? Why has no government stepped in here. I have a Hotmail/Outlook account that’s constantly getting Auth prompts from other countries. Why can I not restrict it to my own! It would fix 90% !

    @MauricioHunt2 @Outlook I'm having the same problem. Four emails I sent to Hotmail in the last few hours were bounced back.
