Old people can bring down the Internet :-O

I am surprised this made the news
It is not the aliens we have to worry about
www.abc.net.au...

Georgian police arrested a 75-year-old woman who single-handedly cut off internet connections in Georgia and neighbouring Armenia, the interior ministry in Tbilisi said.

Lmao crazy nanna

I don't thing she should be jailed over it however....maybe the big bad wolf made her do it...

We should be able to bring it down -- we built the damn thing.

61 y.o. network engineer since 1990

I kinda have a picture in my head of a nanna all in black or cammo with matching zimma frame blowing stuff up and chuckling - very creepy

We youngin's thank you for that - please don't bomb my link

You clowns ain't never seen my mom on the internet.

She's a computer assassin. Obviously she's working for the NSA spying on me.
And she lurks on ATS. Be very afraid. I mean it, you haven't seen her when she starts clicking crap and moving the mouse pointer. Last week she put her task bar on the stove, printed three sheets from the microwave and started talking out of my toilet one night.

Update: The old lady in the story just sent an email to my coffee maker. I forwarded it to my mom. Maybe they can work together on this Facebook problem.

Oh yeah, I'm 53. My mother is older than I am. I'm waiting for one of them to take down Mae East one of these days.

I started on computers when it was a little black screen with green letters. I'm 47 and we never had no stinkin' mouse!

Although I wouldn't get rid of it now.

I remember sharing mainframe time and no monitor, just a printer.
