I’ve been a fan of US Mobile (also not an endorsement) for this purpose - my primary line is Verizon Business, but US Mobile provides access to all three of the major US carriers along with the ability to easily swap between them. Cheap enough to keep as a backup esim, too.

I do think this highlights the increased frequency and impact of these outages. Make sure you have backup plans for communications if one or more fails. While my personal impact was near nil many people use telemetry or navigation over cellular as a service and would have been impacted. If I was for example an uber driver impacted I may not be able to reach my destination, or I may not be able to summon one. As the market squeezes margins our tolerance for faults also narrows. We saw this with supply chains 2020-present and I expect the rate will increase vs decrease in the coming years where a disruption has unexpected impacts. Role play these outages and test them where possible. - Jared Sent via RFC1925 compliant device

Now that this is behind us, I’m wondering if anyone has heard what actually happened.
Does Verizon do after-action reports that we could find?
