      I've only noticed in the last few months a sudden shift in using it correctly to people thinking that random other letters could be used to mean bits or bytes. People not knowing how to use it at all I've always seen. But the K/k or M/m thing I've only noticed recently. Some new trendy misinformation I can only imagine. Like people trying to sound cool using "revert" to mean "reply".

      I've seen it longer than that but never consistently. It seems to fade in and out of popularity, especially when it comes to commercials for ISPs. And I hear revert instead of reply all the time, but that's because my support team is in India.

      YOu mean they try some fake English then.... revert to the real meaning again? 😉

      They are just doing the needful 😉

      At least that is just an odd word, not a misuse of a real very specific one.

        Doing the needful is an uncommon turn of phrase, but totally appropriate.

              It's not commonly spoken anywhere outside of India that I've ever heard. At a former job, they gave all the customer-facing reps "American" names to use, and when I'd see: "Mrs. Jones, we've resolved this on our end. Please do the needful. -Mike" I would just facepalm, because, no. It was a dead giveaway but even after telling the staff that, it was not changed. Oh well, the company was dishonest anyways.

                The point was, misusing revert is wrong, using the needful is just regional. Unrelated items. And I've found the UK to use revert and defend it more than any other region.
