Internet spent Q4 '25 fighting with cables, power, itself

Across 2025 as a whole, the company tracked more than 180 significant disruptions, with the final quarter dominated by cable damage, power problems, and routine operational failures. There was just one confirmed government-directed shutdown during the period.

Traffic returned briefly before declining again, and routing data pointed to throttling rather than a clean shutdown.
