Day of disruptions shows problems with tech reliance
researcher for the Rand Corp.
says the confluence of break-
downs should be interpreted as a
wake-up call to companies and
engineers to program their net-
works to protect them against in-
evitable glitches and malicious at-
tacks by outsiders.
“Instead of just letting the
technology rush ahead of us and
then trying to catch up in terms of
privacy and security, we should be
baking those things into the sys-
tems from the start,” she said. “We
need to be a little smarter on how
we are coding things.”
The length of Wednesday’s
outages also is disconcerting,
Gartner’s Iitan said.
It took the New York Stock
Exchange until 3:10 p.m. — just
over three and a half hours — to
resume trading. “I think every-
cyber intrusion involved.”
First a “router issue” at Unit-
ed Airlines suspended all of the
company’s flights for nearly two
hours, leading to 800 flight de-
lays and 60 cancellations. Then
at 11:32 a “technical problem” at
the New York Stock Exchange
halted trading. In the midst of
that, the Wall Street Journals
website, WSJ.com, had “techni-
cal difficulties” that sent readers
to a temporary site while the pa-
per worked to fix the problem.
“The problem is humans can’t
keep up with all the technology
they have created,” said Avivah Ii-
tan, an analyst at Gartner. “It’s be-
coming unmanageable by the hu-
man brain. Our best hope may be
that computers eventually will be-
come smart enough to maintain
themselves.”
one needs to assume technology
is going to go down sometimes,
but you should be resilient
enough to quickly recover from
the outage within a half hour, if
not a few minutes,” Iitan said.
Still, being deprived of tech-
nology for a few hours is a re-
minder that it is still clearly bet-
ter than the alternative.
‘When you’ve got six of seven
billion shares a day [trading], I’m
not sure you’ve got any other
choice,” said Larry Tabb, founder
and CEO of the Tabb Group, a fi-
nancial research firm that focuses
on market structure and trading.
“I can’t image going back to paper
tickets and floor trading. If Goo-
gle goes down, are you going to
have abunch of people with ency-
clopedias looking up answers for
people? The cat is out of the bag.”

Government officials said
that it did not appear that the in-
cidents were related, or the re-
sult of sabotage, counter to an
endless stream of jokes and con-
spiracy theories posted on Face-
book and Twitter — and even
the suspicions of FBI director
James Comey.
“In my business, you don’t
love coincidences,” Comey told
Congress Wednesday. “But it

problems like Wednesday’s that
temporarily knock out vital ser-
vices and conveniences of mod-
ern life are likely to become
more common as computers
and other electronic devices in-
creasingly connect together over
the Internet.
For United, it was the second
major technical issue in two
months. On June 2 the airline
had to halt all takeoffs in the U.S.
because of what it described as
computer automation issues.

Whataburger restaurants
won’t allow open carry
Whataburger’s president and
CEO issued a statement Thurs-
day about its open carry policy,
which will remain the same de-
spite a new state law, according
to the restaurant’s website.
The Texas Legislature passed
a law earlier this year allowing
the open carry of handguns for
license holders. However, pri-
vate property owners are afford-
ed the right to ban the practice.
“Whataburger supports cus-
tomers’ Second Amendment
rights ... but we haven’t allowed
the open carry of firearms in our
restaurants for a long time,”
Preston Atkinson states. “It’s a
business decision we made a
long time ago and have stood by.”
Atkinson states the restau-
rant won’t restrict licensed con-
cealed carry, but will ask cus-
tomers not to open carry in its
close to 800 restaurants.
As a concealed carry license
holder, Atkinson sympathizes
with those against the policy, but
assures the business decision
was made based on customer
concerns.

At an airport welcome cere-

Francis praised Bolivia for taking
“important steps” to include the

country, South America’s poorest
Morales came to power
championing Bolivia’s 36 indig-
enous groups and enshrined
their rights in the constitution,
and under his leadership Boliv-
ia’s economy has boomed
thanks to high prices for its nat-
ural gas and minerals. But Mo-
rales has roiled the local church
by taking a series of anti-clerical
initiatives, including a new con-
stitution that made the over-
whelmingly Catholic nation a
secular country.
In his speech, Francis noted
the Catholic faith took “deep
root” in Bolivia centuries ago
“and has continued to shed its
light upon society, contributing
to the development of the nation
and shaping its culture.”

LA PAZ, Bolivia — Pope Fran-
cis arrived in Bolivia on Wednes-
day on the second leg of his South
American tour and immediately
insisted that the Catholic Church
continue to play an important
role in society amid efforts by the
government of President Evo
Morales to curb its influence. He
later called for dialogue between
Bolivia and Chile over their long-
time border dispute.
Morales hugged the pope as
he descended from the Bolivi-
ana de Aviacion plane and hung
a pouch around his neck of wo-
ven alpaca with indigenous
trimmings. It is of the type com-
monly used to hold coca leaves,
which are chewed by people in
the Andes to alleviate altitude
sickness. It wasn’t known if
Francis chewed any leaves,
though he was served mate tea
made with coca leaves, chamo-
mile and annis on the plane
from Quito, Ecuador.

Medicare to cover
end-of-life counseling
Medicare said Wednesday it
plans to pay doctors to counsel
patients about end-of-life care,
the same idea that sparked accu-
sations of “death panels” and
fanned a political furor around
President Barack Obama’s
health care law six years ago.
The policy change, to take ef-
fect Jan. % was tucked into a mas-
sive regulation on payments for
doctors. It suggests that what
many doctors regard as a com-
mon-sense option is no longer
seen by the Obama administra-
tion as politically toxic. Counsel-
ing would be entirely voluntary
for patients.

rewrite passes House
y?
The House narrowly passed
a Republican-led rewrite of the
Bush-era No Child Left Behind
education law on Wednesday,
voting to dramatically lessen the
federal role in education policy
for the nation’s public schools.
The bill, sponsored by Min-
nesota Rep. John Kline, gives
states and local school districts
more control over assessing the
performance of schools, teach-
ers and their students. It also
prohibits the federal govern-
ment from requiring or encour-
aging specific sets of academic
standards, such as Common
Core, and allows federal money
to follow low-income children to
public schools of their choice, an
issue known as portability.
