Old story. The cable cuts were actually in San Jose and San Carlos. The area effected was around Morgan hill.
The most likely perpetrators are members of the CWA who are in contract negotiations with AT&T at this time.
Sorry.. I searched around to see if someone had posted this before – but didn’t find anything so I thought I would bring it up anyways.
The articles does make some good points about how our communications infrastructure is vulnerable – no matter what the cause.
We would have the same chaos if this had been done by terrorists or whatever.
The silver lining is that this should alert people to the danger – what would happen if this occurred in conjunction to another type of attack?
I believe the CWA is the major reason there is no longer a manufacturing division of AT&T.
