If there are 50,000 people and 50,000 people experience problems, that's bad. If there are 5 million people and 50,000 experience problems, that's fine? Isaac

Isaac Asimov's comments about world population increase involved something about this; the more people there are, the more each individual is dehumanised and rendered irrelevant (my paraphrasing).
- yeahitslikethat 8y agoNo I don't think it's fine at all. I think Google, twatter, Facebook, et al don't care because 50 people and who they represent don't matter to them compared to the money they make. When all rounded up it isn't even a single penny on the balance sheet. The owners of these businesses literally never even know from the their only view into the companies. I have no idea why I'm being downvoted on this. Hackers can't do math or what?
- creato 8y agoI think your position is a little unrealistic. 50 people experiencing problems out of what, a billion? is pretty good. Do you think that if those billion people were served by 20 million small business e-mail providers, that none of those 20 million e-mail providers would ever make a mistake and affect their 50 customers?
- yeahitslikethat 8y agoI said 50,000 were affected. Only 50 twatty tatted about it.
- creato 8y agoOK, 20,000 e-mail providers with 50,000 users each. Does that change the point?
