  1. Had a thought over the weekend that our #VoIP service has a separate E911 entry from the main account, and the address might not be sync'd.

    Sure enough that's the case - if you have an E911 provider, you should prob check that. If I'd called 911 they would've been dispatched to the old place. Ugh. Fixed now.

  2. @thenewoil RE: #SurveillanceReport episode "Reddit Sold You Out" on the topic that the #AT&T outage is a good reason to use #VoIP. Just a FYI (as I used to work for a major telecom) that most major telecoms use VoIP internally for both last-mile and peering call termination. So if you have a separate VoIP provider and the destination call was traversing over a downed networks, it would still fail.

    As always, love the content!
