Many of the companies you listed are not working on classic infrastructure anymore but use massively cloud services = other peoples computers. When this infrastructure gets shaky somewhere it rips others with them in the process. The trend to use Software as a Service adds to this problem because a single failure can cascade into seemingly irrelevant services that way.
