- joering2 8y agoWell precisely. And not like Comcast doesn't have money aka "But budgetary constraints and financial reality...". The reality is that they do annual surveys and find out spots on map where cutting happens very rarely and in those places they won't have any redundancy running - something, you know - the whole internet is based off of. So no, two cuts like this are not something out of ordinary. The fact Comcast is cheap and don't have redundant pipes/contracts to operate secondary backup lines is simply being cheap and saving money on their part.
