and so it begins. I don't know precisely what the "it" is that is beginning, but I believe something is among the horizon. Who is next? 

Yes, I am conspiracy theorist.  If I am right that something sinister is coming, then I have no choice but to gloat and make the doubters feel bad about themselves for the rest of their lives.

I don't either, but I have a feeling others are coming, like Google maybe.

I would just assume this is a product of the competency crisis. It is just rather dumb pajeets being asked to do difficult jobs they aren't really qualified for. As boomers retire, the younger generations taking their place have no reason to take any seriously or develop any real skills...many of them simply have small brains...so across the board you will see things simply not work very well.

True, but not consecutively within a short period of time. I would expect the incompetency and malfunctions to be more random, not three in a row within a month.

Yes, but Google is huge, just like the others. The point is that the big companies that focus on communication and information are doing this.

It doesn't raise any alarm bells for me. I am sure this is happening across the board...lots of things are failing. It just isn't all being reported on.

Maybe I'll start my own search engine.  Seems like the timing might be right.

The Governor of NY just militarized the subway system in NYC as well.

Called in the National Guard even.

or complain 

or communicate 

best do it now

You have to have access to the internet...but you need a service provider that will will probably be down.

I don't want to gloat on you FOS. I like you, you are one of the smart ones here. However, I can't pick and choose. If I am right, then unfortunately I must flex and gloat on you as well. Nothing personal.

Lol none would be taken. My predictions aren't correct 100% of the time. Only like 99.4%

But that 0.6% is all that's needed.   

lotta practice runs going on

Hackers hit the pharmaceutical companies with a serious ransomware attack

We went through hell getting my wife’s meds for about a week

Her prescription disappeared from their screens

When we hand delivered the script, we were told that they couldn’t find her insurance anywhere

The only way we could get it was to pay for it all out of pocket

These aren't practice runs though. They warn users if a practice run was going to happen.

I’m talking about practice runs for a controlling shutdown
