There were more than 11,000 incidents of people reporting issues with Amazon starting from about 1 p.m. ET, said Downdetector, which tracks outages by collating status reports from sources including user-submitted errors on its platform.

The outage may be affecting a larger number of users. Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

In December, a major outage had disrupted the company’s AWS cloud services, temporarily knocking out streaming platforms Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) and Disney+, Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD), a wide range of apps, as well as its own e-commerce website as consumers shopped ahead of Christmas.
