How did car dealers function? They wrote it all out on paper and pledged to complete the process after the systems came back.
These systems are far more vulnerable than anyone normally assumes.
Getting back old material requires tapping back into a single account on a proprietary cloud that is itself vulnerable to hacking and leaks.
We are dazzled and thrilled by all the snazzy things we can do with all our new toys but blissfully unaware of just how fragile the entire system is to technological contingencies.
Now we find that even our access to learning and wisdom is highly contingent and dependent on centralized systems that can be taken down in an instant.
It is how any system can be hacked and compromised in any sector: car sales, real estate management, delivery systems, banking and finance, and payment processing.
All these systems claim to have redundancies but we have no guarantees of that.
