It's interesting to note the cascading effects. For example, I was immediately hit by three problems: * Slack file sharing no longer works, hangs forever (no way to hide the permanently rolling progress bar except quitting) * Github.com file uploads (e.g. dropping files into a Github issue) don't work. * Imgur.com is completely down . * Docker Hub seems to be unavailable.

Somewhere a sysadmin is having to explain to a mildly technical manager that AWS services are down and affecting business critical services. That manager will be chewing out the tech because the status site shows everything is green. Dishonest metrics are worse than bad metrics for this exact reason. Any…
But isn't that the whole point of lying: to the less technical manager (often the only person whose view matters at major customers), the status board saying "up" means the problem is the sysadmins, not the vendor.
