I think it’s reasonable Fermi estimate. That said, people would be willing to pay a lot more for Facebook. Doesn’t mean it’s more valuable.
“Do you think most websites should be randomly down for a day?”—well, it’s not just down for no reason. It’d also issuing a reminder of the importance of existential risk. And then people would be able to read about who took it down and possibly why afterwards. And there could be significant utility there.
But I guess my true rejection is that I saw it as just a game and I assumed that you wouldn’t set up such a game unless you judged the cost to be insignificant. Which seemed inline with just taking down the frontpage for a day. And, I didn’t see any reason to double check what I presumed your judgement was here.
