That happened for example here in germany in munich. And a lot of IOT stuff that would work fine on a Pi zero has often an entire windows OS. Robots are often controlled on Windows. Only God knows why.

    After a moment I said, "going down?"

    Working in IT years back, a user rang to say his computer wasn't working; even turning it off and on again didn't help - all he had was a black screen. Is the screen switched on? I never turn it off he says. Eventually I have to go and investigate only to find the the monitor isn't even plugged in. He can't understand it. Turns out the cleaner used the socket to plug in her new vacuum because it had a shorted lead.
