Re: Uganda Communications Commission shutdown order

[Ramakrishna Padmanabhan <ramapad () caida org>]

Hello folks,

Wanted to chime in to say that near-realtime outage data/graphs from the IODA (Internet Outage Detection and Analysis) 
system, at CAIDA, UC San Diego, are publicly available. For example, the following graph shows that the outage in 
Uganda began at ~4:00 PM UTC on Jan 13th and ended at ~9:00 AM UTC on Jan 18th:
https://ioda.caida.org/ioda/dashboard#view=inspect&entity=country/UG&lastView=overview&from=1610280000&until=1611057600 
<https://ioda.caida.org/ioda/dashboard#view=inspect&entity=country/UG&lastView=overview&from=1610280000&until=1611057600>

Using the public dashboard you can view/check for outages affecting any country, sub-national region, and AS: 
https://ioda.caida.org/ioda/dashboard <https://ioda.caida.org/ioda/dashboard>. By default, the dashboard shows 
connectivity data for the last 24 hours, but users can specify any time range (up to a max of a month) back to several 
years. Note that a typical research infrastructure disclaimer applies: the system is still actively under development. 
While the automated alerts do contain false positives/negatives, the graphs provide users a clear view of what the 
underlying measurements tell us.

Btw, IODA provides data/graphs also to ISOC Insights mentioned by Mat.
