Subject: Verizon Outage Today?

My partner (Delaware) reported that their Verizon iphone had gone SOS-only, 
even after a reboot.  Shoot, did an autopay fail?  Never seen this before.

I noticed the same on mine.  SOS-only, sometimes with satellite only, sometimes 
with wifi.

Try to log in over home wifi, and of course, Verizon wants to authenticate me 
by....sending a notification to my phone number.  FFS.  Really?  Passkeys, 
WebAuthN, TOTP?  None of this has meaning to you guys?

Are others seeing this?

-Dan
