Amid Verizon outage, Bay Area emergency services, businesses proceed as usual
Briefly

Despite the nationwide Verizon outage affecting over 100,000 users, emergency services and businesses in the Bay Area remained operational, handling calls without significant disruption.
Rob Enderle emphasized the dependency on phones, noting, 'An outage creates a fairly big drag,' implying that even minor disruptions can have considerable implications.
While Verizon's outage impacted many, emergency services such as the San Jose Police Department confirmed that their 911 call services were unaffected, maintaining public safety.
Officials stressed that even in case of no service, Verizon customers can still reach 911. 'If your phone shows Emergency calls only' or SOS,' help is still accessible.'
