It is the author's title.No I didn't....that's why I was wondering if this was a hypothetical situation they wanted us to discuss.
Did you experience the outage? News to me.
No I didn't....that's why I was wondering if this was a hypothetical situation they wanted us to discuss.According to today's X22 Report it happened this morning. Almost at the end of the report.

This is what happens when half of the internet relies on Goliaths like Amazon, Google and Fastly for all of its servers and web services. The entire internet has become dangerously geared on just a few players.”While Sky News has a column taking a similar if less-iconoclastic angle:
Internet outage is a cautionary tale about the fragility of the webIt is possible this really was just an accident, they do happen. But it’s also possible it was setting the table for more internet problems down the line, or just designed to make people feel vulnerable, or people made money shorting Fastly stocks before they slumped (https://www.thestreet.com/investing/global-internet-outage-hits-stock-futures-fastly-shares-slump)…who knows. Only time will tell.
