When you immediately realize that a world based on Digital Currency, Digital ID, the Internet of Things and the Internet of Bodies is probably not a good idea…

Thank you for the heads up.

I had major issues this morning, couldn’t get back on Twitter for at least an hour. I thought my computer was compromised. Wondering if they installed something on the browsers.

Just noticed this, but it’s not stopping my writing! Check out my latest post on the new game Arc Raiders.

Everything in life is centralized.

Even BTC

Keep seeing this, despite Substack being 100% up, all day long.

i dunno who’s feeling crippled out there, but this kind of outage should effect everyone equally. Kinda sounds like this cloudflare negative bounce isn’t a substack problem.

It’s not just that it’s up up all day, every check, but all my people are around. I don’t have any of those I interact with regularly disappearing.

Let me count the ways Cloudflare has blocked…

Aren’t you happy that we have centralized… everything! I literally cringe seeing all the plugins, APIs and other crap hardcoded in people’s and businesses’ websites. Because your website’s fonts have come from Google, right? And this is just a tiny sliver of this moronic pyramid of idiocracy.

Ok, let's get wild in our guesses about what's really going on here: I bet this "spike of unusual traffic" is coming from 3I/Atlas 🛸. Next? 🤣🤣

Thanks for the heads-up!!

I had isssues checking my profile and inbox and anything for my voice over job platform I utilize- Voices- I thought it was the platform itself "effing" with me, I thought it was ai bots keeping me from my work, i thought many things and wondered whats is going on!! I also had issues with another voice over job platform I utilize-Fiverr- A huge influx of spam/scam messaging. It was very obvious it was spam/scammers. I kept seeing a notification to "unblock" cloudfare- which i never blocked to begin with. I did nothing at the time these things were occurring except close my macbook and went for a walk wondering WTF! thanks for writing this up. I only saw it just now and when I saw Cloudfare I understood- your article helped this guys (my) nervous system today. Thanks

I work for a company where they often roll out updates that causes no end of headaches for us engineers, and don’t get resolved until they roll back to the previous version.

Even Apple IOS 26.x has bugs that now stop me from sending text messages to multiple recipients.

These tech companies are desperate to release the latest updates without thorough testing, or rely on us to do their testing for them on a live update.
