[outages] AWS east is reporting an outage, seems to be affecting IAM globally

[Jeremy Gault (KD4NED)]

I'm running into issues controlling devices via Alexa now. Unable to 
manipulate some smart home devices (Amazon smart plugs, TP-Link smart 
plugs, Philips Hue lighting, etc.) The TP-Link plugs and Hue lights can 
still be manipulated via their own apps, just not Alexa or the Alexa app.

I'm sure it's probably related.
