This is the best summary I could come up with:
The 2022 Rogers outage that left 12 million people without wireless and hard-wired services was caused by human error and made worse by management and system "deficiencies," says an independent review conducted for Canada's telecommunications regulator.
The report says Rogers' core network manages wireless and hard-wired data both internally, within the company, and externally, for outside customers and service providers.
Designating risks in phase six as "low" meant Rogers' staff could avoid additional levels of scrutiny and approvals as the upgrade proceeded, even though doing so "contravenes industry norms," the report says.
All incident response and crisis team members at Rogers have since been provided with backup, third-party access to the internet to "maintain communication capabilities during outages."
The spokesperson said, citing an August 2023 report from analytics firm umault, Rogers was found to have the most reliable wireless network in Canada for the period surveyed.
A spokesperson for Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry François-Philippe Champagne told CBC News that Rogers has addressed all recommendations in the report and is continuing to invest in network resiliency.
The original article contains 900 words, the summary contains 171 words. Saved 81%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Have we as Canadians considered: Rogers owns too much of our shit?
They don't own Bell and Telus. 😅
Unfortunately they own Shaw now.
Not to mention Freedom
I'm so happy they couldn't snatch Freedom. As Freedom user, I gotta say things have gone great since Quebecor took over. Shaw had them more or less on life support.
Yup, we can thank Quebec for having their own businesses increasing competition for all Canadians.
