Sad that instead of having a discussion about this, my point of view gets downvoted. It's true. Where I live, cash has had more downtime than cards. That is just plain fact.
- ubernostrum 8y agoThe problem is that while it may be personally true for you in the country where you live over a short window of time, it's not generally true for the world. Internet outages are more common than demonetizations.
- dahfizz 8y agoI think it really comes down to what you mean by 'internet outage'. Maybe if you're in a smaller town, the one ISP can have a service outage. Or a large hosting service like aws could have an outage. But those are always going to be limited in scope, both in time and users affected - as far as I know, there has never been a time where the entirety of the internet just went down. On the other hand, demonetizations do happen and they do not have the same limitation of scope - they affect every business and cash using citizen of a country.

- lizknope 8y agoOkay, let's have a discussion. I said that I have never worried about this but my relatives in India did and I provided a link. Provide some links or describe what happened and then we can have a discussion.
