A nation without Stains for a whole afternoon!



I love this graph because it is not easy to visualise what it looks like when an entire country looses internet access for a few hours. What do you show - a close up of some frustrated would be browser pounding at their keyboard rebooting Firefox for the 3rd time with that really heinous and oh so familiar WTF expression that is one keystroke from full blown meltdown? The expression that, come to think of it, is not so different from that of Stains.




Point is, the mothership went down here in Hungary on Sunday afternoon, as evidenced by the big drop in internet usage round about noon. According to Index, it was sabotage! Someone cut the veritable cable. Not sure why or how cos, well, that would require greater depth of Hungarian. But crazy that we are one snip away from connectivity!
