That's what the GP is saying.

the parent comment to mine at time of writing was just: > It is all green if you do not need to be log in. Giving the impression if you were logged in/didn't need to log in, that everything would be ok.

Oh, I see. Looks like their auth (state) servers are down.

Try YouTube, which is totally broken. But I guess it's technically not part of /appsstatus

YT seems to be working in Incognito / Private mode.

Ah, thanks!

Kinda weird it would totally break if the auth failed, unlike other services like Search.

Just checked https://www.google.com/appsstatus all green, which does not reflect reality for me (e.g. Gmail is down) edit: shows how incredibly difficult introspection is

What's the point of having a status page when it can't reliably tell you the factual status?

Especially one that breaks the back button.
