Day Around the Bay: PG&E Online System Upgrade' Knocks Untold Number of Customers Out of Their Accounts
Briefly

Gavin Newsom's ongoing lawsuit against Trump regarding the unauthorized deployment of the National Guard in LA is still pending, with federal judge Charles Breyer conducting a hearing recently. Meanwhile, California's PG&E faced significant backlash following a botched upgrade to their online services, which left customers unable to access their accounts. In a controversial move, Trump signed a resolution to revoke California's electric vehicle mandate aimed at reducing gas-powered vehicles. Additionally, widespread outages affected major services like Spotify and Google due to issues with Google Cloud.
There was a 70-minute hearing Thursday afternoon, and for now at least, the California deputy attorney general says that the National Guard troops will be replaced by 140 US Marines.
PG&E appears to have completely screwed the pooch when they upgraded their online and billing system over this past weekend, and now people can't log in to their accounts.
Trump signed that Congressional resolution today killing California's 2035 electric vehicle mandate that's intended to phase out gas-powered cars.
Outages hit Spotify, Google, Amazon Web Services and many other apps Thursday, and service provider Cloudflare says that Google Cloud was the cause of the outage.
