Some urgent news. Vandalism has created a widespread telecom out

Sure it's not just the Comcast vendor digging up more critical infrastructure?

BobRehak :
That's very unfortunate. Thanks for letting us know

Texasdad : And you do it so well lmao! 🤣

How would vandals cut underground (or even above-ground) lines, particularly without being noticed? I'd imagine it would take more than just a pocket knife or a pair of wire snips -- unless you're MacGyver?

jwardl : They came prepared perhaps knowing what they needed…..people are dogs…..wait, no, that's an insult to dogs!!

BobRehak : Much worse to come - just watch

Ruger5 : It's like some are agents of chaos just for the sake of chaos, not unlike the fictional Joker from Batman lore.

jwardl : For sure!

BobRehak :
Thank you for the information.

BobRehak :
Thanks for keeping us informed on things that most of us would be unaware of in our area.

I've heard, but haven't been able to confirm, that service to some cell towers was cut. The cables are still important to business customers. I've also heard from some customers who say that telecommunications in their entire office buildings were knocked out. That could put a serious dent in productivity, deadlines, etc. And then there are people who have emergencies. Imagine having a heart attack and not being able to call 911.

That looks like something one of their contractors would do.

kyleven : This is not just cable. This includes internet service. Without internet service having an app or streaming service you're dead in the water.
