Well, Australia is experiencing the largest telecommunications outage ever. Optus went down early this morning and its now 5 hours later and no fix.
Everything is fucked. mobile, landline, trains, eftpos machines in cafes etc.
@ACG2 It was a "deep network" problem. Some system failed. https://theconversation.com/optus-blackout-explained-what-is-a-deep-network-outage-and-what-may-have-caused-it-217266
