Oct 13
7 AM this morning the Internet went out.
Streaming TV stopped iPhone too.
All day long, Internet outage wreaked havoc on the shops in the city.
Stores could not process ATM cards
Banks could not give you any money
Incoming outgoing calls dropped
We don’t realize how dependent we are
Spectrum, quoted verbatim
Internet disrupted in Redding due to vandalism. Spectrum confirms.
This is the second time in three months
Spectrum Internet down, in Shasta County
they continue “our fiber lines were cut
this morning as a result of vandalism in Redding. Affecting communities through
Shasta County. Due to the vandalism we
had to repair more than 850 strands of fiber optics to restore our service. Outage from
7 AM fully Restored 4:30 PM”
I speculate This experiment was an exercise
The effects of pulling down just Internet,
without taking out the power.
Without Internet use, the city fell
The funny thing is, the three notifications I received from Spectrum. I did not get until after the Internet was fully restored.
Not trying to be a conspiracy theories
One cannot help but wonder if this has anything to do with voting early?
Or was this a trial run for
a bigger outage on election day?
Bank your vote
Make a note
Vote early get it done
Tell your friends, everyone

BLT Websters word of the day Challenge
Verbatim 10-12-24
It means in the exact words quoted
Footnote
Vandalism took down our Internet both times for the greater part of 10 hours or more. We don’t realize how many things are connected to the Internet. All of our banking services, smart houses. The list goes on. Don’t wait till the last minute and then not be able to vote because the system is down. I think of all the States involved in these hurricanes and the voting polls are gone. I’ve always voted on election day but I’ll vote early this time to make sure my vote counts. The last election I got a notification voting paper registration for my father. Who passed away in 2015 I took the ballot into the booth and told then my father never lived here I was in charge of the estate don’t know why I would get A Ballot for him in my jurisdiction he was from Southern California. They took the paperwork and I got a notice verifying he voted. Yes my dead father voted five years after he died. When I contacted them I was told oh it happens really
Maybe that’s why there’s so much disbelieve in The voting process, and in our government.
I haven’t given up, hope that we can make it a better system and a better government.
