The system is down
I work for a large third party contractor that provides technical support for one of the world's largest computer manufacturers. Yesterday, at about 2:00pm CST, we lost internet at our facility, effectively shutting down our operation for about half an hour. During the downtime, a few agents called home and reported that the internet was down there as well, indicating that access was down citywide. Shortly after this, management reported that we had lost internet access at all of our facilities in North and South America.
This seems like an unreasonably massive outage, the sort of thing that should not even be possible. I'm wondering if it really did hit all of both continents. Did anyone else notice this?
