Google’s YouTube and Gmail services crash worldwide
Dimapur, Dec. 14 (EMN): The year 2020 has not been the best for humanity as a whole and to make matters worse, Google’s two most popular services, Gmail and YouTube, have crashed for millions of users worldwide today.
Eastern Mirror have tried to access YouTube and Gmail but we got these error messages instead.
We can only imagine the extent of damage that this crash might have caused, especially to businesses that rely upon Google’s Cloud services.
Update: Team Youtube has responded to users and has given an official statement on their Twitter page regarding the crash of Google services. It read, “We are aware that many of you are having issues accessing YouTube right now – our team is aware and looking into it. We’ll update you here as soon as we have more news.”
