Error with all requests

I have been getting the dreaded 429 error for a few weeks:
Error in interest_over_time(widget, comparison_item, tz) :
Status code was not 200. Returned status code:429

This occurs after the following command regardless of whether I use a proxy or not:

library(gtrendsR)

res <- gtrends(c("nhl", "nba"), geo = c("CA", "US"))
plot(res)

The pytrend package seems to be facing a similar issue (see here).

It is on Google side, nothing we can do about it right now.
