- "Facebook DOWN: MAJOR outage leaves social media users unable to login" (Martin) 'server issues'.
The glory days of hacking are also long gone. It still exists, but it's almost all the work of criminal gangs for purely commercial purposes. As the world gets worse and worse - look at how optimistic South America was only a few years ago, now a series of disasters, and all the horrible shekeled decisions of Trump for Sheldon, and so on and so on - there is still the hope that people are much more angry and aware than the authorities can comprehend (note how consistently shocked they are at the woke actions of various 'deplorables').
Perhaps this arrest is the clarion call to the hackers of the world to put their black hats back on - though any attacks against Assholia would involve, by definition, only the whitest of white hats in doling out some just desserts - and get back to work. If people are no longer allowed to blow whistles, maybe some will feel that more direct action will get the attention of the bad guys. The worst of the worst have been riding high recently, and that just ain't right.
