Def need a bkup system...911 down..that's crazy

WashCoScanner Screenshot of the OG iPhone. Nice.

Remember Barack Obama is the one that appointed (Ajit Pai) as FCC President not Trump unfortunately, don't take my word for the information because it's been confirmed since 2012. HappyNewYear NetNeutrality BlackTwitter Millennials HappyNewYears2019

Hope 911 works when God shuts off New York city electricity. 🤣

U.S.A. is under attack

As it turns out the system became overloaded when President Trump found out KFC would be closed on New Year’s Day, and having 911 on speed dial kept calling over and over to get just one franchise branch open.

OMG..Americans existed for 150 years without 911 Service. I think we can survive a few hours without it . Call local Police .

What's really going on? Transformers, circuits, breakers and all sorts of power, travel and communications issues in different areas of the country, weather issues or what?

*™

That’s crazy. After all this time terrorists are still trying to scare us about 9/11? Grow up people.

👽👽👽👽👽 may not even be enough time for KFCBarstool to get his slow cooking ribs done on the BBQ today.

So basically handle your own shit..got it.

Not to worry , it's just the Chinese messin with Trumps head .

Why was this a single point of failure for so many 911 callcenters? That is the real story here

When are you opening your country again?

Schumer GET OUT YOU WERE NOT VOTED IN AS PRESIDENT, YOU JUST BLOCK AND OBSTRUCT, YOU HAVE TO BE KICKED OUT

Russian interference- you need to update your technical infrastructure

“The outage affected only wireless 911 calls”

Why is no one reporting on the cause?

Hackers?

Cyber attack success. Disrupt communications.

Breaking news, Washington has shut down due to lack of communication

Good old CenturyLink. Someone probably spilled coffee on something important. 🤪🤣

did Trump shut that down too?

ChiefCovfefe Power plant explosions, 911 service disruptions, if one was paranoid, one might be getting paranoid something is up they are not telling us

It's a 'throw before the toss' terror maneuver. The 'throw' is the 'set-up'. The 'toss' is what follows the 'throw'. January 1, 2019 approaches. That's 1-1-19, which is huge in Screen Actor Guild terror talk language... the 'toss'. Don't get on the bus, never get on the bus.

FCC investigates.

Nationwide Century Link outage impacting 911 service in parts of Washington.

Century Link outage knocks out 911 calls , hospital's patient records.

Sign of the times that I see this and immediately think, 'The Russians are testing the fences.'

STATter911 Fine them!!!!

Level 3 is the issue. Crappy company with crappy service. Purchased my CTL.

The outage happened in 2001. No one has responded to the outage. The outage occurred in 2001 because terrorists from Quebec took control of Centurylink and other ISP's & phone service providers. Now, the State Police in Oregon are also hijacked by the same terrorists. Send Help.

Oh great, Russians can bring down our 911 system.

Like duuuuhhh. That was yesterday and they were up and running last night.

I’m sure you will try to blame this on the administration somehow?

Whaaaaaat?

GoldenGirlsRu Third largest ILEC in the country shouldn't have large-scale infrastructure failure like this. This is just poor management at its finest.

Scary

Low bid

Not good.

CenturyLink out? The story of my life.

I thought this was last night?

theresamax Who you gonna call?

Privatization is grand.

F

Blame Trump

That's because Telecom companies suck bigly. They're trying to stretch the life of their ancient infrastructure instead of investing in upgrades. Regulate them!

A nationwide CenturyLink outage is disrupting 911, and the FCC is investigatingFCC Chairman Ajit Pai has called the service issue 'unacceptable.' As if this FCC would ever hold telecom accountable. Ajit Pai is a joke. Nothing to be creeped out by here at all. I found Centuryling unacceptable last year and cancelled all subscriptions in favor of Comcast which is a much better service. Don't even think about 'cord cutting' with Roku, it is worthless too.

'We have had a lion attack': 911 call released from deadly mauling'We have had a lion attack': 911 call released from deadly mauling as employees left 'devastated' and 'traumatized.' This is just tragic Just an EFFIN' LION doing EFFIN' LION things. And, of course, like the shitty humans we are, we failed to respect the animal that we were holding in captivity against it's will, and had to end it's life because, again, the KING OF THE EFFIN' JUNGLE demanded his respect. Name? The animal belongs in the wild. People round them up, treat em like shit. Then wonder why they act like the animals that they are.

Woman reunites with 911 dispatcher after nearly drowning in muddy ditchFlorida woman has tearful reunion with one of the rescuers who saved her from drowning when she lost control of her vehicle and landed upside down in a muddy ditch. It's amazing, isn't it? When somebody comes to help? A stranger? A professional? Doesn't matter. It's amazing. 911 Call Takers and Dispatchers are first responders too, also the most forgotten because they are never seen. Also a reminder that a seatbelt cutter & window punch tool is just a few dollars and can save your (or someone else's) life. And you ended up there how? 'No Licence For You.'
