A secondary problem is that a lot of the internal tools are still on US East, so likely the response work is also being impacted by the outage. Been a while since there was a true Sev1 LSE (Large Scale Event).

What the heck? Most internal tools were in Oregon when I worked in BT pre 2021.

The primary ticketing system was up and down apparently, so tcorp/SIM must still have critical components there.

tell me it isn't true while telling me there isn't an outage across AWS because us-east-1 is down...
I help run quite a big operation in a different region and had zero issues. And this has happened many times before.

If that were true, you’d be seeing the same issues we are in us-west-1 as well. Cheers.
I don't think this is true anymore. In the early days bad enough outages in us-east-1 would bring down everything because some metadata / control pane stuff was there, I remember getting affected while in other regions, but there's been many years since this has happened.
Today for example no issues. I just avoid us-east-1 and everyone else should to. It's their worst region by far in terms of reliability because they launch all the new stuff there and are always messing it up.
