#12Is this /really/ the status page? It looks like it was pasted straight out of an email to Jason Zander from whoever is trying to fix the problem. https://status.office365.com/ Title: Can't access Microsoft 365 services User Impact: Users may be unable to access multiple Microsoft 365 services. More info: Any Microsoft 365 service that leverages Azure Active Directory (AAD) authentication may be impacted by this issue…
Yes, that's pretty nice. A clear, concise, and accurate description of the problem, noting that the change is bring reverted.
Absolutely! It's more about the presentation.
"Title:" makes it look like a grade school book report.

You must not have heard the old joke "Office 361."

#15Earlier quoted context omitted.
The ©2019 Microsoft Corporation is a nice touch. There isn't a date on this entire page!
Seriously!!! How about the "Add this page to your favorites" link? I guess the 365 target audience still hasn't learned how to bookmark. Anyways the Azure status page is a bit more grown up: https://status.azure.com/en-us/status
That button doesn't work in Chrome, which almost certainly means it doesn't even work in Microsoft's own browser (since Edge is Chromium-based now)

#17I'm using this to test for return of service:
$loop = "loop"
do {$response = $null; Start-Sleep -Seconds 5
try {$response = Invoke-WebRequest "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | select status*}
catch {Write-Host "Down $(get-date)"} finally {}
if ($response) {Write-Host "OK" ($response).StatusCode (Get-Date)}
} while ($loop -eq "loop")

#20#HugOps to the SRE's rolling back changes. I can’t reliably access anything right now so I’ll just use this as an excuse to take a brief walk.
