MODERATORS
I didn't mean the average worker. I meant the "executive leech class," because downtime of this scale means lost profits, which is something they care deeply about.
They care about quarterly profits. Preventing fuckups of this scale requires long-term effort which is not profitable by itself, it only prevents possible future fuckups, and this is why proper QC etc. aren't done. Short term profits over everything else.
In that case, it's time for the average workers to sabotage the bossware. Let the leech class solve the problem they create.
Hospitals are effected by this too.
Why are sensitive or critical hospital systems loaded with bossware? That itself is a breach of medical safety regulations and medical privacy. If such bossware fails for whatever reason - even sabotage, it's on the leach class. Prosecute them for murder.
So?
