Just wondering out aloud rather than floating any theories, if it is in any way related to the 6.4 magnitude earthquake and/or geological events leading upto it. Also inter/un-related, Google provides Apple with the infrastructure for iCloud; they also experienced some downtime in the last few days, along with others i.e. tremors causing some sensitive/critical servers to misbehave. However, I doubt that it is down to these factors, as there will likely be significant amount of distributed fault tolerance, failover and contingency plans in place. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/ci38443183/executive https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/ci38443183...

The outages occurred long before the earthquake but my mind originally wandered to the same place. What earthquake related causes could have had effects 24h or more ahead of time?

It's definitely the end times. Locusts coming anytime now.

  You’re right, the crew got it’s seals and we’re releasing them. I am tech and weather and it’s not stopping. The opposite will always occur. The gates open soon.

Apple runs their own bare-metal services - only some of which are hosted on Google Cloud. You could see which ones went down when Google did the other week.

  Do you have a link? I tried to find out which GCP regions/zones affected were related to Apple, without any luck. edit: Google Cloud Networking is indicating disruption at present: https://status.cloud.google.com/ https://status.cloud.google.com/

Take with a grain of salt. This is pseudoscience at best. There were some reports of earthquake lights[1][2][3] and earthquake clouds[4][5][6] recently.
