>It's ironic because the internet was actually designed for decentralisation, a system that governments could use to coordinate their response in the event of nuclear war

This is not true. The internet was never designed to withstand nuclear war.

Arpanet absolutely was designed to be a physically resilient network which could survive the loss of multiple physical switch locations.

ARPANET was literally invented during the cold war for the specific and explicit purpose of networked communications resilience for government and military in the event major networking hubs went offline due to one or more successful nuclear attacks against the United States

Spot on article, but without a call to action. What can we do to combat the migration of society to a centralized corpro-government intertwined entity with no regard for unprofitable privacy or individualism?

> They [outages] can force redundancy and resilience into systems.

They won’t until either the monetary pain of outages becomes greater than the inefficiency of holding on to more systems to support that redundancy, or, government steps in with clear regulation forcing their hand. And I’m not sure about the latter. So I’m not holding my breath about anything changing. It will continue to be a circus of doing everything on a shoestring because line must go up every quarter or a shareholder doesn’t keep their wings.
