The cuts in the Internet, data and telephone signal during the social outbreak in Cali during 2021 were a constant. The operators of these services revealed that the failures occurred as a result of vandalism.

During 2021, 168 infrastructure failures were reported to the ICT Ministry. Of them, 12 concentrated in Cali between April and August of that year.
Reports indicate that in the capital of Valle de Cauca not only did mobile data fail, the voice signal and even the fixed internet also dropped.
With this detail, at least for now, it is clear that the failures in these technological services occurred due to the excesses during the social protest and not due to inhibitors that, they accused, the Police used.

In any case, the Constitutional Court had said that the interruption of services affected the right of citizens to be connected and communicated. Then, he ordered the national government to carry out an investigation to determine who was responsible for the loss of communications.
From the Casa de Nariño, the investigation continues and from there they must determine whether or not the National Police used signal blockers during the protests.
