AT&T experienced a nationwide cellular network outage, affecting thousands of users, which the company attributed to a technical error in coding during network expansion, not a cyber attack. The outage, which peaked at around 73,000 reported incidents, also impacted Cricket Wireless, prompting investigations by the FCC, Department of Homeland Security, and FBI. Other carriers reported normal operations, and Capitol Hill officials expressed concerns and a commitment to prevent future incidents.
