The most surprising thing to me here is that it took 3 hours to root cause, and points to a glaring hole in the platform observability. Even taking into account the fact that the service was failing intermittently at first, it still took 1

My guess is that someone at MS was testing Windows Updates or other changes from a local source. They also had some other DNS updates in their config they were testing. They took all of their config and pushed it out, when they should onl

Strange that the section on password managers doesn't mention LastPass, and the 2FA section doesn't mention Google Auth. If they have criticisms of those tools, it would be better to share them. Don't just ignore them, they
