Google accidentally broke the internet throughout Japan
https://www.engadget.com/2017/08/28/google-accidentally-broke-internet-japan/
Last week, nearly half of Japan briefly lost access to the
internet because of an error made by Google. The mistake was
noticed and corrected within just a few minutes, but its
effects led to hours of slowed internet connections. The
impact was so large that Japan's Internal Affairs and
Communications Ministry initiated an investigation into the
issue.

It's still way too easy to make serious BGP errors!
