> The Baader–Meinhof effect, also known as frequency illusion, is the illusion in which a word, a name, or other thing that has recently come to one's attention suddenly seems to appear with improbable frequency shortly afterwards (not to be confused with the recency illusion or selection bias[1]). It was named in 1994 after the German Baader–Meinhof Group, when a contributor to the Bulletin Board column in the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported starting to hear the group's name repeatedly after learning about them for the first time.

We're using all of the services I've given as an example. We have experienced issues with them before but not in such short period of time.
