The female CEO of woke telecomms corporation Optus for hours gave Australia the silent treatment when the company she controls crippled the country's telecommunications (including many govt services) for 16 hours. The country's female Communications Minister wants to hold her to account, and the female telecommunications industry ombudsman wants to force Optus to pay compensation claims, which even if it somehow happened, would end up being paid by Australians through higher prices and taxes.
What none of them can do is run things in such a way that third world shit like this doesn't happen.
There was a major 12-hour long outage in across Canada last year, affecting all customers of our biggest internet provider. Similar things have happened in a couple of European countries as well.
Makes you wonder if somebody is testing something.
