continued from my previous idea about the external services not being as perfect as they should. I have started to read Slavoj Zizek's "Cyberspace, or, the Unbearable Closure of Being". Below is a paragrpah from the Article and my interpretation and also a diagram explaing my version.

What is a symptom? (Zizek's version)

When one is dealing with a universal structuring principle, one always automatically assumes that - in principle, precisely - it is possible to apply this principle to all its potential elements, so that the principle's empirical non-realization is merely a matter of contingent ircumstances. A symptom, however, is an element which - although the non-realization of the universal principle in it appears to hinge on contingent circumstances has to remain an exception, that is, the point of suspension of the universal principle: if the universal principle were to apply also to this point, the universal system itself would disintegrate.

What is a symptom? (my version)

When ever we deal with a particular issue we assume that there is some sort of a system. We also assume that the system applies to all parts of the issue, and where we think the system does not apply that is because we think there maybe a problem in the future within the issue. A symptom is something which informs you of the future problem, which is where you have to suspend the system, because if you apply the system to that particular problem, the system will be destroyed or can destroy the whole issue.
