Episode Synopsis
1. Amazon is bouncing back from a major outage that knocked out popular apps and websites around the world. The company says it has fixed what it's calling an "underlying issue", signaling to many industry analysts this was not a hack. But ripple effects are still being felt, from banks to airlines. This stands to go down as just an "inconvenience" for most users. One of the takeaways is when Amazon sneezes, most of cyberspace catches a cold, or at least a few symptoms. According to Down Detector, the app that tracks problems like these, some of the sites affected were Amazon, Facebook, Disney+, Lyft, McDonald's, Snapchat, United Airlines, Venmo, and Verizon. And some United and Delta customers even reported on social media that they couldn't find their reservations online, they couldn't check in, and they couldn't drop their bags off.
2. The Trump Administration continues to target fishing vessels and other boats in the Caribbean. These are deadly strikes and the administration claims all the boats targeted were attempting to smuggle drugs into the US. 32 people have died. The strikes are not sitting well with Colombian President Gustavo who said one boat targeted last month was a fishing vessel that got lost. President Trump has pledged to end U.S. aid to the South American country.
