Can't speak for those customers, but I know people today, younger than 35 who think whatever is set to the homepage IS the internet.

Some had Google as their homepage. Some Facebook.

I learned this when they would be like "Josh, the internet is down, can you help me?" and I'm like wahhhhh? Come to find out Facebook had an outage. "I just opened the internet and its not working". :facepalm:

I get calls for this at least once a week. "Computer is slow/down" or "internet not working" when really the corporate partner's homepage is having issues. (Usually when everybody is sending in their orders for the week.)
