Yeah, this is notable. If true, every mobile carrier getting hit at the same time says "coordinated incident", from whatever source and for whatever purpose.

Edit to say: my Verizon FioS and cell service are both working fine, no noticeable interruption at any point today.

Second edit to say: never mind, downdetector's home page normalizes report spikes so 1k and 100k both look identical.

The down detector site has Verizon outage reports two order of magnitude bigger, so it doesn't seem like a cyber attack to me. ~60-160k vs ~1.5-1.8k
