If you’ve suddenly noticed that your internet connection is deteriorating, know that this hasn’t just happened to you. A number of services are having connection issues in Europe, and it’s unclear if this is an issue with a carrier or a common service.
Google, Gmail and others are down
A few minutes ago, a large number of users warned on social networks like Twitter that Google was down. This means that not all company services are accessible either; In addition to the web browser, Gmail also suffers from issues.
Associated services, such as Google Drive, or even YouTube, are inaccessible from Europe. The most curious thing is that other services that have nothing to do with Google are also experiencing problems, which may indicate that it is not necessarily the fault of this company.
In addition to Google, several services were affected by the fall
As indicated in Downdetector, other services such as Spotify, Twitch, WhatsApp, Uber Eats or Steam are affected. Even users of sites like Reddit are reporting issues. The pages of various media, such as EL ESPAÑOL
A devastating detail is that all Spanish operators have connection problems, which can indicate two reasons.

For example, Twitter is still working fine at the time of writing, so this is unlikely to be a carrier-level issue.
It’s very possible that what’s happening is that a Google bug affects other apps and websites that use its services, such as Analytics or cloud storage. At this time, Google has made no statement.
