Regional outages, ordinary causes
Power and connectivity interruptions were reported in several regions, all with mundane explanations.
Localized outages continue to be the most common form of disruption people actually experience, and they continue to have ordinary causes: weather, maintenance, and equipment age.\n\nNo extinction-level event is implicated. The practical response is unglamorous — a charged battery, a working flashlight, and a written-down phone number outlast most theories about what outages mean.
