Network data from NetBlocks shows internet across Italy has mostly been restored after more than five hours of outages.

Reuters confirmed the outage was due to "an international interconnection problem."

In a separate report, Reuters said that Italy's National Cybersecurity Agency warned about a ransomware attack targeting servers worldwide.

The hacking attack sought to exploit a software vulnerability, ACN director general Roberto Baldoni told Reuters, adding it was on a massive scale.

Italy's ANSA news agency, citing the ACN, reported that servers had been compromised in other European countries such as France and Finland as well as the United States and Canada. -RTRS

The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) was aware of the attack. The agency said:

"CISA is working with our public and private sector partners to assess the impacts of these reported incidents and providing assistance where needed."

Reuters pointed out that the cyberattack and Italy's internet outage "were not believed to be related."

Meanwhile, here's what people are saying on social media:

MiggyMack 🙂 @MiggyMackAttack · So Italy was the first in the West to do lockdowns... Now they're the first to have the cyber attack ol' Schwab has been monologuing about. What is it about Italy that the Globalists don't like?

Ingrid 💫@Stingrid74

The covid pandemic started in Italy, exactly 3 years ago. Would the internet outage in Italy right now be the start of the predicted cyber pandemic?

Bernie's Tweets @BernieSpofforth · WEF - Klaus Schwab, warning of the next ‘pandemic’, a cyber attack so vast it disconnects the internet.

The new internet will only be accessible to those with biometric digital ID.

Almost as if this is a plan 🤷‍♀️

Reuters confirmed "internet outages and glitches" across Italy on Sunday. The problem appears to be an "international link."

"An international interconnection problem impacting the service at the national level was detected. Analyses are underway to resolve the problem," a Telecom Italia (TIM) spokesperson said.

Italy's ANSA News agency reported there are no signs yet that hackers were responsible for the widespread outage.

To answer why Italy.

Vatican City. The seat of his Holiness, the Pope. Supposedly the very conduit to God. Italy is also home to 7 hills, just like Washington DC is. The AntiChrist is supposed to appear soon. So, in all honesty, Italy is where the shitshow in the book of revelations is supposed to start I think.
