So last Sunday 14 April 2019, WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook were down from 6-9 pm which seemed to have caused a lot of “rioting” all over the world. It even made it to the front page of Borneo Bulletin on the next day. I still struggle to make sense out of this. Why was it such a big deal. Yes, I would be restless if the entire Internet was down. But, on that night, it was not like the end of the world for me. Without WhatsApp I could still use SMS to contact people, send them emails or just give them a call. My theory is, these hardcore social media users thought that their “friends” would die of curiousity if they didn’t know where everyone was and what everyone was doing. Well, trust me people, they actually don’t care. They “liked” your posts because they wanted you to “like” their postings back. The more likes they get, the more they feel like their existence are validated. The truth is, there are no friends, just interests. So if you see me liking your post, I actually don’t give a shit.
