Microsoft Copilot fixed worldwide after 24 hour outage

A global outage disrupted Microsoft’s Bing, Copilot, and related apps for over 24 hours—impacting Asia and Europe most—and also affected DuckDuckGo and ChatGPT’s Bing-powered browsing; Microsoft mitigated by rerouting to alternative components and later confirmed full restoration, citing a preliminary root cause of an internal service-to-service call tied to eligibility checks not performing as expected.
