#TheGuardian: "Could the #internet go #offline? Inside the fragile system holding the modern world together""If the internet were ever fully shut down, it is unclear if it could be started up again"But… "in the UK, there is a non-virtual #contingency plan, or at least there was… People who know how it works will meet up in a pub outside London and decide what to do. “I don’t know if this is still the case. [And,] I was never told which #pub it was.”"https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/oct/26/internet-infrastructure-fragile-system-holding-modern-world-together

@bortzmeyer @cyclotopie @jpmens BIND is a language written in Knots and it words holds tremendous Power! When they are Unbound, the world will come to an end and people will chant NSD, NSD, NSD as a prayer to the DNS gods!
