NEW YORK CITY - If you woke up Thursday morning with a little sign on your phone that read "SOS" or "No Service," and you frantically tried to reverse this, with multiple unsuccessful attempts, rest assured that you are not alone.
At least some 71,000 people across the U.S. had this same issue due to a major outage in the AT&T network that caused cellular service and the internet to go down, according to the tracking site Downdetector, which gathers claims of this kind.
