The only difference between an outage or shortage between big and small companies is size, but the outcome in disruption of services is the same. Anti monopoly laws which we have gotten away from, has allowed for the chase for the buck over quality.
I take it back. You've probably been hacked...someone, somewhere wants to get their hands on your poetry and your wonderfully rambling insights.
*spit take*
I don't have any social media. I used to, just FB though. But I'm paranoid, so, I didn't have any friends other than people I actually know and see on a semi-frequent basis. But when I came out and went atheist, I had less and less in common with my family and friends. Nobody would comment or like any of the stuff I posted, and I curated my feed so any family that liked to play frequent games or post religious crap didn't show up in my news feed anymore. It became a boring place where I was just talking to myself. Worse yet, I suspect that the stuff I posted became fodder to be used by busybody family who wanted to talk about me amongst each other. But you can't unfriend anyone without setting off a firestorm of drama. So, I just deleted it, about a year or two ago.
