That explains why my Thunderbird kept bringing up a box to sign back into Google with.

It’s probably the only investment information that BS has ever published.

Service outage could hit their stock price today among day traders.

People with Google Home were not able to turn their lights on during the outage. Pretty easy to see why that technology has been pushed so hard - what’s censoring a YouTube video compared to controlling a heretic’s entire right to exist?

I bet they’re installing the new oppression algorithms, for censoring content and individuals.

SolarWinds and Dominion

https://www.zdnet.com/article/microsoft-fireeye-confirm-solarwinds-supply-chain-attack/

https://www.fireeye.com/blog/threat-research/2020/12/evasive-attacker-leverages-solarwinds-supply-chain-compromises-with-sunburst-backdoor.html

A hack initially corrupted a Solarwinds file, after which, that corrupted Solarwinds file had/has been installed on various Windows OS based machines as a part of routine updating.

The hacked file hatches, you might say, active hack commands that find certain files and deletes those certain files.

The hack tries to hide its tracks, and then force a reboot of the Windows OS based machine.

It is a cover-up.
