That should be one of the least complicated aspects of the issue: Glass and Stream are constantly in communication with their servers when working properly, so calculating when they were offline should be quite possible.

So compensation, regardless of how little it will be, should be automatic. ... nobody needs to call Sky and jam the phones😊

An announcement would be useful ... for the sake of those jammy phone lines😉

So I think the consensus is clear: Sky should do the right thing. 

Whether they actually do is quite another thing though!
