mee too Edit: Firstly their ingresses are not respondable Followup, this impacts all of the traffic which is originated from balkans.

No. It works for me.

64 bytes from lhr35s10-in-f14.1e100.net (216.58.206.46): icmp_seq=1 ttl=110 time=47.9 ms

Our GCP VMs are also not responding (europe-west4-a and us-central1-b).

edit: Seems to be a network problem. We can't connect to them from Bulgaria, but we can connect to them from the US.

Seems like it. Youtube as well

Google Apps and cloud status page down in Romania.

Even connectivitycheck.gstatic.com doesn't seem to be responding, making Androids think they don't have internet access.

Everything Google related is down (Gmail, docs, youtube, google, etc.).

Is this the end?

Probably the rest of the Balkans too.

It's not limited to Google, now I wonder if this is actually a Cloudflare/other CDN/International Infra issue or is it that so many services use Google Cloud stuff and they are gone too because of it.

Can confirm issues! I can't log in for a google meet call at all.

Seems ok in Canada.

It's probably just a coincidence vibe-bros... :P

splitroute
the initial handshake of the connection in the affected countries is going through all the way obviously so the problem is not google services. the issue is in the interim path

I guess either this is an internet exchange collocation, ISP tier 1 fuckup or some of the non-existent agencies were instructed to sabotage connections. Or they did some interception fuckup.

DNS maybe?

Hmmm maybe that is why www.youtube.com wasn't resolving, but youtube.com is.

Had to change my /etc/hosts to get mpv youtube working today.
