We experienced a full cell phone outage nation wide in Canada and part of the USA apparently.. They claim solar flares knocked out cell poles. Meanwhile I have no access to information so I cut today blogs with a quick reminder of the upcoming Rakugo token sale and interview!

Howdie from Quebec. We didn't experience any outages here, or at least we didn't notice. I barely ever use mine these days and my husband's worked when he used it but then we were both home and had no need for either of ours. It is strange and alarming though that there would be such a widespread outage. Perhaps only certain service providers were affected. Hmmm, I'm curious now.

That is because you are Quebecois! you are better than us! Tres Bon, Je suis jaloux.

I am normally away from my device aswell, but I planned the day to record a good mobile live vlog and ended up at my destination without reception so had to record a quick one on limited memory space and upload later. I suspect it was a either a major hack occuring causing the outage that was kept quiet, or a country wide test to see the public reaction to such an event. They claim solar flares apparently, but cell towers withstood alot more than a little glare, I have a hard time buying it haha but who knooows
