Real Estate sign chops off Internet
Wednesday afternoon my internet died.
Ring Spark and get to Chorus.
24 hours later still no internet, rang Spark yet again.
Another almost 24 hours and DOWNER rings me to say the cause is a newly erected real estate sign has chopped off internet connections to 7 Spark [neighbour] customers and other internet servers.
Finally many hours of Downer and Chorus people at mine and other neighbours and a big hole dug on the side of the road, internet back after almost 48 hours.
Big bill for the real estate I am told.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
