The biggest political crisis in modern Mexican history happened on the exact same night Node 04 went dark.

On July 6, 1988, during the Mexican presidential election, the government computers mysteriously crashed: 'se cayó el sistema'.
Witnesses reported seeing military intelligence trucks parked outside the Coyoacán telephone exchange on Calle Del Carmen.

What did the Mexican regional master contain that terrified the authorities?
