Yesterday, Telia, one of Swedens biggest telecom provider, went offline and wasn't fully back until 3,5 hours later.
The reason for the fault was a power issue according to public statement.

Basically a power issue took down, phone services, mobile services, broadband services and other telecom services.
For the whole nation.

Someone really haven't checked nor tested their disaster recovery plans.

People who don't care about a dystopian future are called Ohwellian.
I heard someone refer to an IT dashboard as a “trashboard” and I can’t stop giggling.

Live Updates: Shai1-Hulud, The Second Coming - Hundreds of NPM Packages Compromised

I'm going to be making some changes on infosec.exchange and associated instances to move the object storage off our self-hosted minio server and onto Hetzner's object storage service to reduce costs in line with donations. This may cause some periodic intermittent issues with media uploads since it's (probably) not going to be as fast or reliable, but I'll work to mitigate that as best I can. Hopefully I can make this change without anyone noticing, but if you see issues over the next week or so, that's likely the cause.
