What’s up with Google as Drive, YouTube etc stop working?

Interestingly, but surely nothing related, Google’s CEO, along with his counterpart at OpenAI, were visiting President Biden at the White House earlier today.
We are continuing to track what is happening and will update this article as more is known...
