Re: Sept. 30 Verizon outage

[Jared Mauch <jared () puck nether net>]

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.
