Question: "CLOSED. NATIONAL SHUTDOWN. NO WORK. NO SCHOOL. NO SHOPPING. STOP FUNDING ICE. COME BACK TOMORROW." But guys, you cater for international audience as well, why make your internal problems global ones? Americentrism has to stop

    if one of us gets illegally detained by our government that would affect you too.

    With the US under Trump constantly threatening neighbors and NATO allies, abandoning treaties, leaving cooperations while forming a new club with the world's dictators and looting a whole country now under new Trump management, speaking of an "internal problem" appears to be awfully short-sighted. Be it just shaking the world economy enough to negatively impact whatever little wealth you may have, or your country has something they want, it could rather quickly become YOUR internal problem too.

    But why make it look so before it happens?

    I mean, you could've made the websites inaccessible to US IP addresses only, because the shutdown was "national" rather than "INTERnational"

    we were closed for the day, that's what being closed means

    Customers from outside the US have nothing to do with the US politics, i still don't get why they should have been affected as well. A website is not a physical door, which you can't keep open for certain customer categories, it allows for a more targeted approach.
