Not really? The internet is literally an internet, i.e. a network that connects networks. You can nearly always find another connection that still works, be it a coffee shop or cellular.
Sure, having a single connection is a SPOF, but anyone living in an urban area and anyone with a cellphone (and not using the same cellular carrier for home internet) has more than one connection.
- beatgammit 7y agoI'm on Google Fi, so theoretically I have redundancy on my phone as well. I have used my phone as a hotspot for work, and I've also gone to other locations to get work done (library, coffee shop, a neighboring company's lobby, etc). A lot has to go wrong for me to not get work done. If Slack goes down, I use text, email, or Jira comments (in roughly that order of priority). Relying on only one communications method is foolhardy.
