Saw workers saying everything has been down in the fulfillment centers for an hour. I can't login to my account. Also AWS is down so people are being logged out of games and services.

I wouldn't call it a sign of anything. DNS fixes take a long time to propagate and every service will have some sort of failure at some point. The lesson to be learned from this is: a. AWS goes down sometimes, and if your service is critical you need to have a backup plan, and B. Too many services rely on us-east-1 without having a fallback.
