In a bizarre turn of events, a Florida man has come forward claiming responsibility for the recent global tech outage that left millions of people without internet access. According to reports, the man, who has been identified as Bob Smith, thought he could fix his spotty wifi connection by taking matters into his own hands - quite literally.
Armed with nothing but a hammer and a can-do attitude, Smith set out to "upgrade" his home network by giving his router a good old-fashioned whack. Little did he know that his DIY approach would have catastrophic consequences on a global scale.
As Smith gleefully pounded away at his unsuspecting router, the entire internet infrastructure began to crumble. Websites crashed, online services went offline, and chaos ensued. It wasn't long before the tech world was thrown into disarray, all thanks to one man's misguided attempt at fixing his wifi.
When asked about his actions, Smith reportedly said, "I just wanted to make sure my Netflix didn't buffer anymore. I didn't think it would cause a worldwide tech meltdown." His naivety and ignorance have since become the subject of ridicule and disbelief among experts in the field.
As the world grapples with the aftermath of the tech outage, one thing is clear: perhaps it's best to leave the troubleshooting to the professionals. And, for the love of all things digital, please, put down the hammer.
