Big drop-off recently from Angola & as usual it's an ISP (TV Cabo) changing their "is the internet working" config.
That prompted me to (again) look at how much we're serving to Fortigate "is the internet working" checks per month, roughly:
- 109 million web pages
- 10 Terabytes of egressWhat a waste.

@tdp_org I think I asked it before but how does it feel to be the litmus test of the internet's — always surprising — continued existence?

(Purely personally speaking that is, it has been exhaustively established that the professional side of that can be surmised as “a spot of a bother”)
