They were retaliating for an NSA hack conducted by the United States, which the US denied. Hear all about this game of cyber warfare on Edge of Wonder with Ben and Rob.

If you were online on Monday, October 20, 2025, you likely encountered issues accessing websites, banking online, ordering from Amazon, using social media, or booking flights. The Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage was severe, with Amazon losing an estimated $72–75 million per hour in AWS revenue during the roughly four-hour disruption.

Preliminary estimates suggest global economic losses, including halted financial transactions and productivity, ranging from $5 billion to potentially hundreds of billions of dollars. So what caused this widespread outage? AWS attributed it to DNS resolution errors in its US-East-1 data center region, which knocked services offline for hours.

AWS has confirmed it was a technical failure. However, there is strong evidence to point the blame at China. Not only that, but China has even claimed responsibility after they say that the NSA hacked into their transportation systems on Sunday. Is there any truth to this?

Join Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts on this Edge of Wonder Live as they reveal why China is behind the cyberattack and why Amazon and the government seem to be covering it up.

At the end of the show, don’t miss the live Q&A followed by a meditation/prayer only on Rise.TV. See you out on the edge!
