This Canada-wide Rogers outage really highlights the dangers of monopolized industries. When one malfunction can put half of a country’s economy on pause, we have a big problem.

Only in #Canada, when the largest internet provider goes down #Rogers, everything goes to shit. Digital currency, ATM’s, payment terminals etc. Monopolies don’t work, obviously. It’s been 13hrs. Thankfully we switched to #Beanfield a few months ago. Competition is healthy.

The fact that when Rogers goes out, it knocks out ATMs, Non cash payment abilities, 911 services, internet and mobile from almost all of Canada should be the warning sign that monopolies put Canadian citizens at unnecessary risk

As bad as this outage is in eastern Canada, imagine how much worse it would be if Rogers gets to control all of Shaw's internet infrastructure in the west. This is basically exhibit A in the case against industry consolidation.

Billionaires have had a fantastic pandemic. In fact, billionaire wealth has risen more during Covid than it has in the last 14 years. That should tell you all you need to know about the state of wealth inequality today.
