Another Attack on Bandwidth.com
reddit.comThe volume of affected businesses and the wide scope of who's impacted is kind of stunning. May not be limited to bandwidth.com solely. If you're trying to call a customer care number today, be ready for a bad experience.
And the media is silent. This is a massive scale outage affecting millions of numbers and end users.
They are usually slow on the uptake. I'm pretty sure the CenturyLink outage wasn't reported until a day or two later after it happened.
I am surprised that tech sites aren't faster to report on it though.
This is the telephony equivalent of when AWS has an outage and the general public suddenly learn that the businesses they rely on are all backed by a large provider.
And there is no transparency, so you can get a backup provider only to find out both of your providers are on the same platform!
