Without a doubt, Google is one of the largest technology companies in the world, owner of the largest search portal in the world and also of several important platforms such as Gmail, YouTube, Google Drive among other branches of the main company.
This morning (14/12/2020) apparently all the company's services went down, the reason is not yet apparent, but as soon as we know the cause of the "blackout" we will update this post.

Google and its services go offline
The decline in services does not appear to be related to internet connection providers, as many users from different providers are having the same connection problems.
The instability also affected users who were already connected to their services, while people who were watching or listening to something on YouTube had their broadcasts interrupted, those who were messing with files on Google Drive also had their access interrupted and connections sessed, such as the page itself. G Drive access prompts.
Despite this, the main search engine continues to work, albeit with a slight slowness compared to when the services are not showing this type of instability.
The problem is not unique to Spain, as users across Europe are already reporting the lack of access to some services of the platform on sites such as downtetector.com which already has more than 9000 warnings about connection problems with Google.
This kind of thing is nothing new, we remember the episode of the broadcast of a Libertadores game here in Spain where the network was overloaded and ended up causing a slowdown for the entire Internet network in South America.
