Does anyone know of a good dashboard to check for such BGP routing anomalies as (apparently) this one? I am currently digging around https://radar.cloudflare.com/routing but it doesn't show which routes were actually leaked. I would love if anyone has any good tool recommendations!

BGP attack?

If Google Chat is down per https://www.google.com/appsstatus/dashboard/ , the ability for Google engineers to communicate among themselves impaired, despite SREs having IRC as a backup.

Someone actually uses Google Chat...?

What's crazy is that RCS messaging is down as a result of this outage. It shows how poorly the technology or infrastructure was designed.

Isn't RCS basically just instant messaging? I don't know why it's surprising that it would be down.

I'm not sure any single company could have an outage that would take out SMS globally, but RCS is presumably more centralized.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's the entire internet. Check oracle cloud, etc etc. The ENTIRE INTERNET.

oracle and azure report no issues on their statuspages, likely just down detector getting hammered.

neither did google cloud for the first 55 minutes of their outage.

It just updated. Maybe affected by their own outage!

Just proves how shady the status page and sla stuff is

Google is 10 minutes late updating their status page.

"So shady"

It's really, really hard to make a status page realtime.
