A solar flare targetted at ATT Infra only? Unlikely.
Could be a hack
Could be a single point of failure
Could be a config change that borked the system
Could be other things that make more sense we will have to wait for more info.

Downdetector only works on user reports. Its basically useless for actual measurement because people are bad at troubleshooting.
