Rostelecom's 2020 Route Leak Made Origin Validation Limits an Accountability Test
Rostelecom's April 2020 routing incident showed why a valid origin record is not a complete route-policy guarantee. Accountability depends on accurate RPKI data, current relying-party caches, explicit boundary filters, path-aware controls, independent monitoring and coordinated…

GoDaddy's 2012 DNS Outage Made Router-Table Change Control an Accountability Test
GoDaddy's 10 September 2012 outage showed how an operator can retain valid domain records while failures in running network state make names, websites, email and the operator's own support systems unreachable. The accountability question is not whether one record or one backup…

Turkey's 2014 Public DNS Interception Made Resolver Routing an Accountability Test
The 2014 interception of public resolver addresses inside Turkish networks showed why a configured DNS destination is not proof of the route, answering system, response integrity, or restoration state that users actually received.

OVH's 2017 Optical-Network Failure Made Redundancy Independence an Accountability Test
On 9 November 2017, OVH lost the optical paths connecting its Roubaix hosting site to major external points of presence. The event showed why redundant paths and saved configuration do not amount to resilient network infrastructure when they still depend on one software state…

Safe Host's 2019 Route Leak Made Peer Filtering a Cross-Border Accountability Test
The Safe Host routing incident of 6 June 2019 showed how an export mistake can become an international infrastructure event when another network accepts and propagates routes outside their intended relationship scope. The durable accountability question is not whether one…

UltraDNS's 2014 DDoS Attack Made Authoritative DNS Continuity an Accountability Test
The 30 April 2014 disruption of Neustar's UltraDNS service showed why authoritative DNS must be treated as running network infrastructure rather than a static entry in a configuration file. The accountability question is whether the provider, its carriers and its customers could…

Bandwidth.com's 2021 DDoS Attack Made VoIP and 911 Continuity an Accountability Test
The September 2021 attack on Bandwidth's communications network showed how a disruption at a shared voice carrier can propagate through many customer brands. The accountable question is not only who sent the traffic. It is whether each operator could prove that detection…

Azure's 2021 DNS Cache Defect Made Retry Amplification an Accountability Test
Azure DNS did not need every client request to be hostile for its 1 April 2021 outage to grow. Microsoft said an anomalous global query surge exposed a code defect that reduced the efficiency of DNS Edge caches. As the service overloaded, ordinary DNS clients retried unanswered…

The 2019 Route 53 DDoS Made DNS Mitigation Coordination an Accountability Test
On 22 October 2019, Amazon Route 53 was hit by a distributed denial-of-service attack. The attack impaired resolution of some AWS names, but the most revealing part of the public record was not that a large authoritative DNS service received hostile traffic. It was that defenses…

NeoNova Network Services' Managed-Control Surface: ASN Records, NOC Work, and Rural Broadband Continuity
Public registry, routing, contract, and managed-service records expose a real NeoNova control surface while leaving reliability and customer outcomes subject to separate evidence.

Cloudflare's 2025 1.1.1.1 Outage Made Route Withdrawal a DNS Accountability Test
Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 public DNS resolver became unreachable worldwide for 62 minutes on 14 July 2025 after a service-topology change withdrew the resolver's anycast prefixes from production locations. The failure was not caused by an attack, a defective DNS protocol, or the…

NTT Docomo's 2021 Network Switchback Outage Made Mobile-Core Capacity an Accountability Test
NTT Docomo's nationwide mobile-network disruption on 14 and 15 October 2021 began during a migration of an IoT subscriber and location-information server. When trouble appeared on the new equipment, the operator switched the population back. The return generated a mass of…

Larus Media Group must prove that media reach converts into durable pricing power
Larus Media Group Limited has a clear legal and registry footprint, but its public record leaves the most important commercial question open: whether a BVI company carrying LARUS-linked number-resource evidence can turn media reach, event access and industry attention into…

Azure's 2023 WAN Change Outage Made Global Routing Validation an Accountability Test
A planned IP-address change on a Microsoft wide area network router became a global service incident on 25 January 2023. Microsoft's account said a command behaved differently across network devices, propagated messages to other WAN routers, and forced adjacency and…

Kerry Trading Co. Limited's Five-TLD Control Surface: Delegation, IDN Operations, and Continuity Costs
Kerry Trading Co. Limited's public five-TLD portfolio shows how legal operator identity, root-zone records, IDN labels, shared technical services, and recovery duties have to remain aligned without turning listed capability into an unsupported reliability or business claim.

Cloudflare's 2022 Outage Made BGP Change Staging an Accountability Test
Cloudflare's June 2022 outage did not begin with an attack or a broken fiber. It began with a reviewed network change whose rollout steps did not exercise the architecture that could fail. When reordered BGP policy terms withdrew site-local prefixes from 19 high-traffic…

Swisscom's 2020 Emergency-Call Outages Made Telecom Redundancy a Public-Safety Test
Swisscom's early-2020 disruptions exposed a hard distinction between redundancy that exists on a diagram and redundancy that carries an emergency call during maintenance or failure. The public record supports a control-based inquiry into routing, fault separation, alarm-centre…

Shetland's 2022 Cable Outage Showed Why Physical Redundancy Must Be Usable
Shetland appeared to have the basic shape of resilience: a subsea fibre path south through Orkney to mainland Scotland and another path north toward the Faroe Islands. In October 2022, the northern path developed trouble first. When the southern path was damaged days later, much…
