    Is that the same ISP (in Florida) that caused a major power outage last Sunday evening and night on Wikipedia and on lots of US websites?

    Already more than 24 hours of outage is extremely excessive for an ISP, when there's no exceptional emergency reason (cyclone, earthquakes...).

    Or may be, that ISP did not pay for its energy bill... (Or the electricity supplier in that state is in trouble, and it will be best to have alternate colocation places).

    Then it's not serious or in serious financial trouble (and its customers should better leave for a more secure ISP with more than one colocation facilities, and redundant power supplies).
