Leave the World Behind (2023) - Part 4 - Cyber Attack

Yesterday was an interesting day across the nation,  with many walking to a strange cell phone outage that seemed random yet specific in the locations.  On top of that,  it appears that there was an outage that impacted the capabilities of many pharmacies across the US. All in all,  it was strange,  but, it didn't totally surprise me.  After all,  I did watch the 2023 movie,  Leave the World Behind, which in true predictive programming theory failed a massive cell phone outage. 

Plot: A family vacation on Long Island is interrupted by two strangers bearing news of a blackout. As the threat grows, both families must decide how best to survive the potential crisis, all while grappling with their own place in this collapsing world.

While initial reports yesterday indicated that multiple carriers were seeing outages, as of this afternoon only AT&T had come out and talked about their issues, blaming the incident on an error in coding, No real details, but they claim it wasn't a cyber attack. But, this explanation only goes so far too dispel the talk of a cyber attack. Why wasn't it the whole network,  why ain't it all devises,  still many questions.  But,  this also doesn't talk about the pharmacies. 

Before I get into that,  some speculated they it could have been the result of the massive solar flair that the Earth was hit by yesterday.  However,  this would not be totally possible,  as the cell systems sit way above the MF/HF frequency range that would take the brunt of the impact of the solar flair. Plus,  the timing was off according to researchers because the outage did not coincide with when the impact should have been felt, 

Now the pharmacies.  According b to United Health, they are indeed being hit with a cyber attack,  crippling multiple pharmacy chains and hospitals throughout the US. Cyber attacks happen every day,  so while this is not totally surprising,  falling in line with the cell phone outage makes it a coincidence that is hard to ignore, especially when you think back to the devastation outlined in the movie.  

From the outset of the making of Leave the World Behind, executive producer former Preseident Obama has started he wanted to add his Eskridge and knowledge gained during his term to the authenticity and message of the film.  Considering his ties to the global elite,  I'm sure that the meaning of dire consequences from the movie are a hint of what they have planned. 

Incredibly, we may have been warned about these events.  In a now since deleted tweet just prior to the outage, Elon Musk sent a cryptic message,  "this is a test." Was that directed at the cell phone? Pharmacies? Or something completely different? We may never know.  But,  I do know, something isn't right with the world,  and this movie continues to some a light on things to come. 

Agree? Disagree? Let me know what you think.
