AT&T Faces Ongoing Issues with Outages and Data Breaches #

AT&T experienced a wireless service outage on Tuesday, affecting some users’ ability to contact emergency services like 911. The company attributed the issue to a software problem. This is just one of many problems AT&T has faced recently, including network outages lasting hours and data breaches compromising customer information. In February, an 11-hour outage occurred, potentially due to an internal error. In March, personal data leaked on the dark web, but the origin remained unknown. In June, another outage disrupted calls between carriers. Last month, a massive data breach exposed millions of customer records. Experts believe that AT&T is facing network overload, software glitches, and technical issues. Improvements in infrastructure and traffic management are recommended to prevent future outages. AT&T acknowledged customers’ frustration and stated their commitment to restoring service promptly.
