Check out our live blog coverage on the Verizon outage for more up-to-date details on the major cellular network issue.

Verizon customers nationwide reported network outages on Sept. 30, with many iPhone users saying their phones have been stuck in SOS mode. This is a massive problem for many folks trying to work and get about their lives on a Monday, and it is unclear when the issue will be resolved.

Verizon has not made it clear how long this will last.

"We are aware of an issue impacting service for some customers," the company's customer support X account posted around noon Eastern time. "Our engineers are engaged, and we are working quickly to identify and solve the issue."

Hours have passed, and folks are still reportedly experiencing the same problem. Down Detector still shows a high volume of user-reported issues. The replies from the Verizon account also seem to indicate that many folks are still having issues and that a fix has not yet been rolled out.

It's unclear when the problem will be fixed, but it could take a while. We will update you as developments occur.

This is a developing story … Check back at Mashable for updates.

Pornhub told TechCrunch that its account even received a notice from Instagram, stating that its ban had been a mistake (that message itse...

California Gov. Newsom vetoes bill SB 1047 that aims to prevent AI disasters

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed bill SB 1047, which aims to prevent bad actors from using AI to cause "critical harm" to humans. The California state assembly passed the legislation by a margin of 41-9 on August 28, but several organizations including the Chamber of Commerce had urged Newsom to veto the bill . In his veto message on Sept. 29, Newsom said the bill is "well-intentioned" but "does not take into account whether an Al system is deployed in high-risk environments, involves critical decision-making or the use of sensitive data. Instead, the bill applies stringent standards to even the most basic functions - so long as a large system deploys it."  SB 1047 would have made the developers of AI models liable for adopting safety protocols that would stop catastrophic uses of their technology. That includes preventive measures such as testing and outside risk assessment, as well as an "emergency stop" that would completely shut down...
