No, this is only bad news for sysadmin's who either don't understand the
technology they are using ( does it surprise you that 'cloud' is still
just a bunch of computers in a DC ?), or just failed to put in place
safeguards that were needed ( if they were not needed, its no problem
when services are down right ? )
Looking at stuff like this :

wonders what kind of crazy people are entrusted with information and the
responsibility to run services of this nature :/
