i mean even google and aws are not without sin on this one. maybe wait for an RCA before punching someone who is currently down. theres a reason classy people do "hugops" when a competitor goes down, regardless of reputation.
Personally, I don't see this as people punching someone who's down. This is the sort of real life experience and necessary context from actual technical users that I come to HN comments for.
Someone is just asking to get Google's side and explaining why they want that, which seems reasonable since we're in a post where Google is being punched/blamed for this, and it sounds like it isn't Railways first questionable outage.
