I have no doubt folks do these things. I also have no doubt the internet is "full" of accounts. But these things, and folks, are outliers, or using cheap(er) hardware.
But, it's too easy to over-generalize from the outliers. Heck, if I believed the internet, I should never receive my mail or packages. Everyone knows the USPS is full of problems. There are tons of complaints online about late mail, missing packages and such. But, gosh, my mail still comes every day. My Amazon packages (in rural areas like mine, USPS does last mile for Amazon) arrive when they should.
