Google services appeared to be suffering a widespread outage on Monday, as users around the world complained that they couldn't access their email. According to DownDetector, the problem appears to have affected Gmail, YouTube, Google Drive, Google Hangouts and Google Meet.
The outage began at around 6:25 a.m. ET (3:25 a.m. PT), and at the time of publishing has continued for over an hour. Google's own Workspace Status Dashboard showed all its services to be suffering outages without exception. But Google Search appeared to still be working, as did Chrome.
Google didn't immediately address the problem on social media or respond to request for comment about the outage.
