[Sylvain Baya]

Hi cmNOG-ers,

Hope you are well.

...do you know any similar report (as the one mentionned below) in this
side of Internet ?

I read that the purpose of the report is to «[...]prevent similar outages
from occurring in the
future[...]».

Shalom,

> “Public Safety Answering Points”), and fast-busy signals for people who
> called 911.  As many as 22 million customers across 39 states were affected
> by the outage, including approximately 17 million customers across 29
> states who lacked reliable access to 911.  Indeed, at least 886 calls to
