Yeah, so here are the technical details: nothing happened, all of this is just a meeting of old incompetent people from gov-related agencies and some representatives from ISP companies, that's a farce.
They made a physical test area and simulated attacks on energy companies, hospitals etc.
Technically they want to create autonomous internet and they claim they can 'unplug' if needed, in reality tho these are basically just words.

Edit: most of these simulated attacks are unrelated to internet - attacks on SS7, Diameter etc.
- iso947 7y agoThanks, I have a branch office in Moscow which has one IPSec link back to HQ via the Internet, didn’t go down (brief packet loss and latency spike incident on the 22nd but only for a minute)
- ibaikov 7y agoYeah don't worry, any issues are just a coincidence, as they only had access to a test area that they constructed, moreover, no one will let them do anything (probably and hopefully) because they can screw everything up - from hospitals to defense systems.
