The coronavirus pandemic has dramatically changed how society interacts. Travel has ground to a halt, working from home(nuova finestra) has become the norm, and large parts of the global population are practicing “social distancing” and remaining in their homes.
However, just because we must remain separated from each other to “flatten the curve” does not mean we are isolated. There have been numerous(nuova finestra) instances(nuova finestra) of people around the world finding creative ways to overcome the distance between us and deliver the support and friendship we all need in these stressful times.
This pandemic has also proved that the Internet is still effective at bringing people together. During this time of widespread lockdowns, we’ve relied on the Internet more than ever. Video chat services(nuova finestra) and social media(nuova finestra) are seeing all-time highs in traffic. We know how much of a difference just being able to speak with and see our loved ones can make.
We also know that sometimes, when you need to relax and decompress, there’s nothing better than watching your favorite show. In fact, so many people have been comforting themselves with Netflix that the streaming service had to reduce its streaming quality(nuova finestra) to avoid breaking the Internet.
That is why we are working diligently to continue expanding our network. Since the pandemic began, we have added 53 new servers.
