Apparently Equifax is down for consumers and businesses.
by Chapman, Brad (NBCUniversal) 13 Jul '26

I was ordering fiber optic internet from Frontier Communications—my doctor said I should consume more fiber—but their system said my credit check failed and was demanding an equipment deposit. I pushed back. They ran it three times. Then they got word in a group chat that Equifax’s consumer and business portals are down, so they can’t process any credit checks. Woe be unto you if you work in finance or support a business that depends on this service. I hope they didn’t have another breach. Maybe they will need a tiny excavator to dig them out of this mess like that freighter stuck in the Suez canal<https://www.reddit.com/r/CatastrophicFailure/comments/mcw8og/new_pictures_f…> for the last two days... Cheers, Brad

Twitter service degradation
by Musee Ullah 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

It looks like Twitter has started having issues with retaining sessions (people getting logged out) / authenticating users (can't login). Down For Everyone shows that it might've started about an hour ago. I had a brief popup tell me Twitter was over capacity, so...I guess it's falling apart now? - Musee

Re: [outages] Amazon/AWS issues?

Of course the minute I decide to send to outages, everything comes back up. For posterity: At 8:30 Central, I started seeing Signal deliverability issues. At 9:00 Central, I observed unavailability of the Alexa Voice Service, Alexa app, Alexa Routines, and the AWS status page, from multiple locations/providers. At approximately 9:15 Central, all of the above issues resolved.

We're seeing external connections to an ELB failing to complete, while internal connections to the host in EC2 seem to be fine. The console for us east 2 also appears to be down.

Cogent - ABQ
by Mike Hammett 01 Dec '22

01 Dec '22

I've heard that Cogent is down in Albuquerque and doesn't even have access to their equipment. I've seen a lawsuit that ended poorly for a local third-party. The two might be related. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP
