|    FCC Investigating AT&T's 911 Outage [tel    |
|    02 Jan 23 12:41:10    |
      From: malQRMassimilation@gmail.com              The Federal Communications Commission is investigating an alarming 911       outage that affected AT&T Wireless customers nationwide Wednesday.       Police departments in various cities reported the outage, with customers       unable to dial 911 from their cellphones. Police took to social media to       offer alternative, non-emergency phone numbers in case of emergency,       though that meant dispatchers were unable to see callers’ locations.       Although the issue was resolved late Wednesday, it was unclear what       caused the widespread outage. Ajit Pai, the chairman of the FCC,       announced an investigation into the incident on Twitter. “The FCC will       investigate the root cause of the outage and its impact,” he wrote.              https://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2017/03/09/fcc-to-investiga       e-at-t-911-outage              --       (Please remove QRM for direct replies)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
