NCTA video on disaster recovery for broadband

One of the weird tasks I had as a librarian was writing a disaster recovery (aka continuity) plan for the collection. So, I always think a little bit about recovery. We are so reliant on broadband, I found the following video from NCTA interesting…

Description from NCTA

When natural disasters strike, the connections communities rely on can suddenly go dark. AFTER THE STRORM, a new docufilm from NCTA, takes you inside the effort to restore connectivity after hurricanes, wildfires, and floods. The film follows broadband crews as they work alongside utilities and government agencies to rebuild critical infrastructure and reconnect communities. Through striking footage and firsthand accounts, AFTER THE STORM reveals the coordination, precision, and teamwork that drive recovery.
