    He denied access to important medical information to hundreds of sick children and their parents.

    You mean all the information that was still there and accessible in other ways? Phone, fax or print and deliver etc. I don't know for sure but I'm pretty sure parents can't just log on and check their kids medical records from home so that's not a thing. Other than some inconvenience and drawing attention to a horrible thing happening why is it such a massive deal? Can you just not imagine not being constantly connected? Are you the type of person who would go fetal if they can't get online?

    decided to kill my little sister because my parents were well-known socialists, I will now never side with the doctors against a child. The CONservative rulers of Seattle hate us and want us to die. That is why I still have dial-up at home. My parents have it a little better since they're allowed ISDN. Again, our rulers hate us which is why they created the Director's Rules.

    So why live there?

    Unless, of course, you really are an authority and you really do know.

    Please explain how working in a tangentially related field means that he knows the actual state of BCH's infrastructure, and continuity/DR plans. Appealing to false authority is worse than merely appealing to authority, but the latter is still a fallacy. Your claim of being a knowledgeable person does not inherently substantiate your proposition, you need to provide direct, relevant facts.

    here’s no such thing as an outage-proof network, so hospitals have to be able to function without the Internet. It’s required by federal law, and for accreditation.

    If they claim to be a real hospital and are accredited as such, which they are, then having no internet really shouldn't be the end of the world. If they are relying on internet enabled devices as critical to peoples wellbeing, well then, maybe they shouldn't be in the health care business. Seriously, people like you, it's a wonder how we managed to anything pre internet.

    The barometric sensor gives you faster updates, so you can see if you're going up and down stairs.

    That's good, you now have a phone that can tell you if you're going up or down stairs....

    Having a barometer built into a phone is more useful than you would think, especially when measuring elevation changes.

    Having a headphone jack is more useful than you would think, especially when listening to music. Just like having a thermometer would be useful when measuring temperature.
