I also can't find a status page and not so much as a peep from Backblaze anywhere. I pinged them on Twitter [1] to no avail. I like Backblaze but this has been going on for 3 hours now. You can't be down for 3 hours without any communication about it...

From the support page, I get the impression nothing will happen until 9am Pacific. Tickets have a 1d response time, and chat is Pacific working day with a lunch break.

I think they're all sound asleep, blissfully unaware of the day they'll wake up to!

It doesn't reflect well on their monitoring/on-call setup that everyone else was paged before them, assuming they are indeed unaware.

Perhaps the first they'll know of the problem is when they read it on HN
