‘Anybody else’s Google down,’ was a spot filling the social media site.
One user shared a screen shot of their Google Search for ‘british army,’ with the website showing ‘Your search – ‘british army’ – did not may any news results.’
Others are being given a black screen when attempting to find articles in Google News.
However, Google’s service dashboards show no disruptions.

DailyMail.com checked Google News and was alerted with: ‘Uh-oh, something went wrong. Please try again’ and ‘There are no items to show.’
The tech giant revealed in 2021 that it had more than 4.9 billion active users, have of whom use Google Search.
It is unclear how many of those individuals have been hit by the current outage.
While Google rarely goes down, its services had issues just earlier this month.
On May 1, DownDetector showed issues appeared around 11am ET, plaguing Search, the website and Google Drive.
Users in the US, the UK, Australia, parts of Europe, South America and Asia reported problems with the tech giant’s services.
