Amazon’s Alexa Voice Assistant Suffers Europe Outages

(Bloomberg) — Amazon.com Inc.’s Alexa voice assistant service is reportedly suffering outages in Europe. 

Outages in the U.K., France, Italy and Spain spiked into the thousands after 6 a.m. on Friday in London on tech services website downdetector.co.uk, which collects and shares real-time information on technology services. Dozens of users in those countries reported issues on social media platform Twitter. 

A spokesman for Amazon didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. The Seattle-based technology giant’s cloud business Amazon Web Services suffered at least three outages in December.
