Numerous AT&T customers reported cell, phone and internet issues today.
AT&T cell users saw an SOS symbol where the 5G symbol is normally.
AT&T said Thursday morning that two fiber cables were damaged during
recent severe weather, but Thursday afternoon corrected that with
updated information.

Subject: [telecom] Knowledge of rule didn’t stop [ AT&T execs from breaking
law, SEC says
The company provided instruction on how to comply with Regulation FD,
which prohibits the sharing of material, non-public information, but
some IR specialists still allegedly flouted the law.
By Robert Freedman
Published Dec. 16, 2022
When the Securities and Exchange Commission in early December fined AT&T
$6.25 million and separately fined three of its executives for
disclosing material, non-public information to analysts, the agency said
the executives knew the law but broke it anyway.
“As members of AT&T’s IR Department, [Christopher] Womack, [Kent] Evans,
and [Michael] Black received periodic training on Regulation FD and were
familiar with its proscriptions against the selective disclosure of
material nonpublic information,” the SEC said in its complaint. Yet they
“knew or recklessly disregarded” what they knew.

So is ours. We have a bunch of antennae on the municipal water tower
which unsurprisingly is atop the higest point in the village. I
negotiated the original contracts.
Now when I'm walking around I see small fill-in cell antennas on phone
poles.
In many countries it is quite common for MNOs to allow access to each
other's towers in rural areas to improve coverage. Dunno how common
that is here. Until relatively recently they usually couldn't becuase
the systems weren't technically compatible, e.g. AT&T GSM vs VZ CDMA.
