Amazon EC2 EU-West is down
Linode doesn't notify their customers affected by outages, or am I missing something?

They don't. They do have an RSS feed that you can monitor with your favourite feed aggregator:

I've been notified for what amounted to two minutes of downtime before (my VPS is in the London data centre). Are you in the Fremont data centre? That is where this outage was.

Yes, I have a machine in Fremont. How were you notified? Email?

Yes. An email about unexpected downtime, then another two minutes later saying the downtime was over.

Hmm, I don't see any way in my Linode account settings to
disable
these emails, and I never received any! That is disconcerting. :(
