That will be an interesting read. I recently read the book "Rogers v Rogers" that covers the major Rogers Communications outage in Canada from a couple years ago. The book is mostly biographical, but it lays a good historical foundation for those events. Anyone else have any good book recommendations? Jared Mauch <jared@puck.nether.net> writes:
Due to the scale of this I would expect an outage report to appear with the FCC in the next year.
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.

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?
