2020-06-15
Update: T-Mobile has officially responded regarding the outage experienced June 15th, 2020.
Official T-Mobile response:

Update 2: As of 12:14 am Central Time on June 16th, I’m still struggling with text messages to my wife on the same service provider. Not yet resolved at this time, but I respect all individuals who are working hard to fix it.
Update 3: (June 16, 2020) T-Mobile officially reports all issues resolved. I personally had a lingering text messaging issue, that T-Mobile support told me to reboot to resolve. Their support was extremely responsive, and apologetic for the outage.
FYI that T-Mobile is currently experiencing an outage at this time. It’s probably not a surprise for many of their customers, including this author. So far, it appears to only affect T-Mobile customers (and possible network users).
So far, T-Mobile has not identified any true Denial of Service, or DDoS, attack. So far, they claim it is related to a “routing issue”.
I did want to quickly put out a couple of links to some resources.
