Seems like a bad BGP update has hit a lot of route servers, a lot of internet instability is to be expected right now
Impact started at 19:42 UTC, and is ongoing
Buried in two of the Day 1 Google Cloud NEXT's blog posts are direct mentions and links to bgp.tools! Google / AS15169 now sends routes to bgp.tools for better visibility into their network!

After sitting on the decision for quite a while, bgp.tools will be switching away from posting updates on X.
Customers and users can now follow this account, the bluesky account https://bsky.app/profile/bgp.tools
I'm the not going to be publicising this on X itself, because it's just going to attract unhelpful attention that I don't think it's going to be very useful to anybody.
