Only a matter of time until the “Technology Trap” shuts its doors on us tight.

Sorry that was my bad. My post on Corvid Vaccines cause their “fact checkers” to melt down in a screaming hissy fit

So was this a test on how to disable countrywide communications for the coming festivities?

As a Software Engineer for 30 years I can remember a couple of Oh Shit moments when doing system configuration like using a wrong mask and deleting something even if fixable would take hours and hours to reconstruct.

It’s especially true if manually running a long series of commands and when you make that mistake and you typically realize the instant you do it and you just freeze and your heart sinks.

Nah, someone finally reached the end of the Internet and it shut everything down. Wonder if they are still lost out there?

I gather from other reporting, that employees were locked out of the Facebook building, due to the outage. This sounds unbelievable. An international corporation, with customers around the globe does not have staff onsite, 24/7 ? The fire department in that community is OK with those folks being unable to open the doors, from the inside, during an emergency ? This happened after a damning 60 Minutes interview, and before Congressional testimony ? Not buying it. Something nefarious was going on, in that building (more so than usual), that was not to be witnessed, methinks . . .

Dan Bongino claims the Whistleblower was a diversion for Facebook going after conservatives, once and for all.

Someone had to program the update...so why couldnt it still be sabotage? This guys just chalking it up to whatever FB is saying happened happened. FB seems pretty untrustworthy if you ask me.

That’s what you get when your only requirement and highest priority for employment is your commie political reliability.

All that and they didn't explain a thing.   No corporation jacks around with its routing in the middle of the day and any update that could affect revenue flow is only done 00:01 AM on Sunday mornings so there is off-hours time to correct a mistake.

This pabulum is not worth reading.

I don’t believe anything fakebook says about anything including why they were shut down.

All planned. Facebook starts their psyop campaign with the “whistleblowe.” Facebook runs ads demanding more internet regulation. Zuck issues pathetic canned response about how great it is. Facebook works with Chomo Biden to censor “misinformation.” All lies. All planned. All to make big tech and the democrats even more powerful.

Reminds me of the Y2K hysteria which was going to destroy all computer systems.

Nothing happened.

So rather than a cyber-attack, overloaded servers or physical damage, it was simply a dodgy update.

Right.

Sure.

The rest of us think it was a trial run.
