- randomswede 5y agoI don't think they were. But, without knowing more specifically what happened, it is hard to speculate. Some of the speculation I have seen was that this was an attempt to cut connections to one internet exchange (IXP) point, possibly resulting in cutting connection to all IXPs. But ,as I said, this is speculation. It'd take a more thorough understanding of how the automation looked prior to the incident, the change hat was trying to be made, and eth like, to say something sensible.
