  • Users were struggling to access Truth Social in the early morning following the alleged hack.
  • As the US continues to insert itself into the ongoing Iran-Israel conflict, the US government believes more cyberattacks could happen.

You say this like the hour all major SAAS went down 2 weeks ago was nothing. MILLIONS lost in business hours is not nothing.

Who gives a fuck about the travails of corporations on the internet?

The entire capitalist world only cares about that.

Feeling concern for the welfare of a corporation is a lot like caring for a lion or some other large predator. You don't want to see it suffer but you know that it could turn on you at any moment, when it's convenient for them.

Not even sure why/were you're even taking this. They said a major outage was no worse than a website being overwhelmed by shoppers. I pointed out it's in fact waaayyy worse. I don't give a fuck about the corporations lost time.
