It affects a lot more than just Microsoft and their services. Imagine all the 2 factor logins where the code is send by mail, such as payment processors or other services with high security. They’ll still work but the users can get locked out. If this continues for a little longer, we’ll start to see some real consequences worse than just email being down.
Other mail providers are working, so we could just send mails through those, but with Microsoft having the majority of business market share, you probably shouldn’t expect to receive a reply from anyone using it. Just another way it is disrupting a whole lot of people who have jack shit to do with Microsoft.










Commenting unsexually on people’s appearance is just regular harassment.
Harassment can be many things. Sometimes it can be nothing it all, if not doing something is the harassment, like withholding information.
If you deliberately withhold information from one gender, then the non-action is sexual harassment.
So really, there is no minimum threshold for harassment, sexual or not.
I think the previous poster means that some kinds of harassment are worse than others. Getting physically attacked is obviously worse, but I disagree that lesser types of harassment should refrain from being called out to reserve the word for worse types. My opinion is directly opposite: We shouldn’t neglect any kind of harassment just because someone has it worse.
