The routine session cleanup that kicked out every active user

by•

Wrote a quick script to drop expired session tokens from our main Redis instance to free up memory. I flipped the comparison sign in the filter clause it purged every valid token and preserved the expired ones.

Instantly all active users were force logged out of the web app.

Support inbox exploded within five minutes while I scrambled to figure out why the auth database went blank.
