I don’t agree with your reading of this that applies downstream congestion issues to your TSP codes circuit. But I will not continue to debate the point. On Thu, Mar 19, 2020 at 13:22 Mike Bolitho <mikebolitho@gmail.com> wrote:
*Restoration:*
*The repair or returning to service of one or more telecommunications services that have experienced a service outage or are unusable for any reason, including a damaged or impaired telecommunications facility.

My understanding, and what we did while I worked for a Tier I ISP, was that even for degraded circuits we had to do everything in our power to restore to full operations. If capacity is an issue and causes TSP coded DIA circuits to be unusable then that falls under the "any reason" clause of that line.

Yes, you have said that. I still believe you are incorrect.
TSP allows priority for turnup of new capacity , and priority restoration for capacity. There is nothing in the regulations that I can find that would allow TSP to be used to rectify general internet congestion issues.

I've said it over and over again, we have TSP and it could easily be used to enforce priority to emergency preparedness customers. It's built into the language.

I was getting blasted earlier for suggesting streaming services and gaming DLCs could likely be slowed by government intervention. EU is currently working with Netflix to do just that. It's currently a strong suggestion and even a plead but I maintain that we're going to see this pushed harder in the coming weeks.
In a statement on Thursday, Breton said that given the unprecedented situation, streaming platforms, telecom operators and users "all have a joint responsibility to take steps to ensure the smooth functioning of the internet during the battle against the virus propagation."

South Africa and a few other African countries put countries on semi-lockdown from about Sunday.
We've seen a 15% increase in peak traffic on our network since the 17th.
