My laptop has a backup UPS built in. If wifi breaks, I can tether off my phone. Power, ISP, UPS and Generators have all failed, but none are as ropey as slack (At least in the west - we had power issues in our Kabul officer earlier today, although even then slack has more outages than that)

A company that gives you a managing director or chief executive can do so with far more availability than just one guy! But really. Your statement is absurdist, critical infrastructure doesn’t have to be outsourced. It’s a choice and there are trade offs.
