It would be nice if there was some sort of independent monitor for that. That might actually be a fun little project now that I think about it; deploy a VM on all major platforms that monitors some core services, collect all data in zabbix orso...
Anyway, I've never used GCE or Azure, but plenty of AWS ;) From my experience, Amazon tends to 'forget' about issues quite quickly. Last month there was a DNS issue, ~12 hours after it was 'resolved' according to their status page I was still having issues for instance.
That being said, I have not had any full outages or downtime due to AWS issues in 4 or 5 years.

It would be very good to have a monitor like the one you mentioned. Something that is gathering problems detected by you, not reported by them. We know that both groups are not always the same.
