Indeed. I'd urge everyone here to pay attention how many sites/companies are dead in the water the next time there is a full blown AWS outage and see if they are as quick to heave the same criticisms at those fortune 500 companies that they are at this two man operation.

What happened w/ Digital Ocean is inexcusable, and has potentially dire consequences for two individuals livlihood. In the immediate aftermath of such an event, focusing on the devs percieved lack of disaster preparedness seems petty.
