[FRIAM] hijinks

[Marcus Daniels]

I'm fond of my fiber optic connection, but there's a reason for considering Starlink as a backup.
MSNBC is back now.  For a while it was just Fox News! !  (I have IPTV.)

My ISP (CNSP/NMSURF) went down at 1:30 yesterday afternoon and did not return until the wee hours this morning.   They reported that a major fiber cut *south* of ABQ was the cause and it took out their primary feed, but also a couple of secondary/tertiary feeds they usually can fall back on.

I blame the Boogaloo Bois... or maybe the Cowboys for Trump with their backhoes....   do Antifa know how to operate heavy equipment?  Surely it is in their training protocol?   They seem more likely to actually have people who would know how to splice up broken fiber.

Any ideas on what hijinks we'll be seeing in the coming days?

My internet has been fluctuating in performance for 15 minutes or so.   Of course, my first thought was a White House ordered cyber operation on media/ISPs.
