How is this not a bigger news? It's been on and (mostly) off for 14 hours.

Except in The Netherlands, where we have some political trouble.

Curious how such a worldwide issue can manifest, considering Microsoft usually has some pretty good geo availability mirroring?

Here in the UK it was on Radio 4 main news this morning and is the headline story for the online mainstream newspapers.

It's also got two stories on the BBC Home Page, including one which is live reporting.
