All of the satellites? What could possible cause all of them to fail at the same time? It's not hardware because they weren't all switched at the same time. Software?

- wybiral 7y agoYeah, bad regex.
- sambull 7y agoCommon frequency. Someones blocking them?
- marcinzm 7y agoThat could cause a regional outage but this isn't being described as such, seems global.
- nabla9 7y agoSatellites are just part of the GNSS system. There are multiple control centers and network of sensor , uplink, telemetry, tracking and control stations around the world. The problem is most likely on the ground. When GNSS satellites are not getting updated data from the ground stations their accuracy starts to degrade.

- jdnier 7y agoSounds kind of like the recent global Cloudflare outage. That outage started with a regex (WAF rule) being pushed out that immediately exhibited pathological backtracking behavior and "caused CPUs to become exhausted on every CPU core that handles HTTP/HTTPS traffic on the Cloudflare network worldwide." https://blog.cloudflare.com/details-of-the-cloudflare-outage-on-july-2-2019/ https://blog.cloudflare.com/details-of-the-cloudflare-outage...
