    I am a retired IT Project Manager. I know the testing phases in all these new releases and updates are integrated with many other systems and the data actions are getting even more complex. The time allotted for testing started to shrink about 20 years ago “to save time and money” these decisions are made by strictly business and group think. If someone points out the possibility of catastrophic failure, they are looked at as anti-innovation or negativity. This is only the highlight of how the systems are denigrating.

    The whole basis of the Internet is peer to peer communication, which creates central shared points that are critical to that information being available to all users. By it's very nature, the internet must have "critical nodes", otherwise the sharing we demand cannot happen. Welcome to the Law of Unintended Consequences.
