Arzachena internet blackout disrupts local businesses

A prolonged internet blackout in the historic center of Arzachena is causing significant economic disruption for local businesses and residents. The outage, which began on October 2 and escalated to a total blackout on October 3, has paralyzed digital services, including insurance agencies, digital service centers, and electronic payment systems.

The situation is particularly severe because the historic center lacks fiber optic connectivity and relies on traditional lines. Emergency mobile routers have proven inadequate for the stability required to manage professional transactions and digital payments, forcing many operators to postpone client appointments and face potential long-term financial losses.
