Thousands of users on social media reported the outages Monday and many businesses had a brief realization for one hour of what their situation could actually look like if a hacker or enemy state shut down the platform that is the foundation of their businesses.
According to TheVerge.com, Google officials acknowledged the issues with Gmail, affecting both its business and personal services. They noted that the outages began at 6:55AM ET, saying they had resolved the crisis for almost all their users by 7:52AM ET.
Reports quickly mounted on Twitter after users couldn’t access Google’s basic services, causing the hashtag “#YouTubeDOWN” to trend.

The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
