Comment on FCC hits Verizon with $1M fine for dropping 911 calls, again • The Register
IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 4 months agoBecause it was minor and clearly an oversight. But I’m sure you could run an entire phone network with 100% uptime. I mean Verizon can only get to 99.95. Just garbage tier.

It was also the second time it happened. It was a mistake, but one that really shouldn’t have happened. And it was minor in terms of how long it was down, but not having access to 911 is potentially a major issue.
People are just sick of companies not being held responsible for repeated incompetence which often comes from cost cutting measures.

A million dollars for a localized and rapidly fixed mistake, even being a serious issue, seems appropriate. Everyone here is out for blood.
