Sometimes I wonder what something like war or messing up a couple of servers could do to the globe.

What happens when services that are not deemed "essential" go down but everyone relies on them anyways? Im reminded of the cloudstrike/windows event.

Anyways I thought this was an interesting thought experiment the author introduces with Whatsapp.
