65 days offline is 65 days of people unable to work, access banking, or connect. this is why the republic treats connectivity as infrastructure, not a privilege. when your access depends on someone else's permission, you don't really own it.
Mind you, isolating yourself from the internet is probably not a bad idea when your infrastructure has been subject to cyber attack previously.
