absolutely wild to me that canada's entire interac infrastructure is entirely dependant on rogers networks and rogers alone with zero redundancy or alternative routing in case things go all pear shaped.
i mean, i'm no network engineer or anything. so feel free to roll your eyes at me. but god damn.
apparently canada's 911 services are also if not outright unavailable, then severely compromised as they also rely on rogers (which today is 100% down)
No, that is pretty messed up. The entire point of the internet is that it doesn't have single points of failure like that.
the entire point of the internet was redundancy. then, the corporations came.
