Status pages are probably manually updated. You don't want a false positive/bug in your monitoring to affect your public metrics.


Fair enough. Though I'm not sure how I'd feel about the whole world knowing about my service's outage before I do.


I'm positive that they have internal monitoring, and probably knew about the issues well before they decided to manually update their status page to reflect the issue. Manually updating the status page does not equal no monitoring, after all.
