Deep State getting some practice in.
Seriously, we need to have contingency plans in place for communication in the event Deep State is thinking long term control and not just loot-and-run.

App content and redirection services we use are impacted hard right now. I’m in the banking/financial services sector. Impacts our clients trying to access their accounts, etc.

Everybody uses the same services. Same thing happened a decade ago when Google Analytics went down. Bolts fall out, it’s an imperfect world.

I think that is the contingency plan. We got all the way to the 90s without the internet.

Ah, I remember the olden days when we had to run FR on smoke signals. Bandwidth was a little slow. No cat pix. :-(
