A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You are entirely ignorant of how anything works. There's no "liability" unless they seriously fuck a goat. Downtime is expected and, in fact, built into contracts. X amount of downtime for service, Y amount for unforeseen circumstances, Z amount for shiggles. There may be some prorating built into it, but even that will be after a certain amount of downtime.
No matter how you slice it the only reason anyone uses cloud services is to cut costs. There actual facts simply do not pan out when you're talking about security.
Businesses chose cloud providers because they think that it will cut costs.
Those contracts are exactly what I mean. A certain, small amount of downtime is allowed for, and it's expected to be fixed shortly. If either of those things aren't true, then the business is in breach of that agreement.
Anyway no u r ignorant. Peace out
