Microsoft outage is so bad even status.microsoft.com won't resolve
shauntrennery · x · 2026-11-13
User shauntrennery shares a screenshot of the ironic low point of Microsoft's outage: even the official status page, status.microsoft.com, is unreachable, with the browser throwing DNSPROBEFINISHEDNXDOMAIN.
When the status page itself fails DNS resolution, it suggests a broad infrastructure-level failure — users couldn't even check Microsoft's acknowledgment of the incident and had to rely on social media.
