I worked for a very large insurance company until recently . IT is run like the Wild West. Contractors seem to do whatever they want.  after a merger several years ago, all the people who built the systems were driven out, leaving a bunch of low paid outsourced contractors to support everything. The entire IT infrastructure is a bad day from collapsing.

I listen to NPR Up First podcast. The give you a nice overview in 10 minutes. https://www.npr.org/podcasts/510318/up-first

I am not surprised, when I worked for a hardware company (late 90's), the repair techs would fight over laptops that came in from churches because they always had the best porn.

Tweetdeck was the only thing keeping me on twitter. I kept it in a pinned tab so I could check the news and stuff. I was already trying to get away from it, that is the push I needed.
