Hate to bust your linking bubble... but that doesnt actually say why.... "It's unclear what caused the S3 problem, but AWS offered frequent updates on its efforts to restore service as the problem dragged on for a few hours."
Hate to burst your bubble, but since that system was down that's why the Internet was broken. It's like us asking why this game was down today - EA won't tell us, but all we need to know is something was broken, thus it didn't work.
