    This is what happens when u fully put ur trust in technology without knowing the full implications behind it. Corporations are moronic
  • @kattmilk
    Typewriters, fax machines and landline phones... ASSEMBLE! 😂
  • @erbol0011
    It is gonna be pain to manually fix and recover windows everywhere
  • @DedesFewscres
    having 1 supplyer is as bad as a massive cyber attack. I'm a cybersecurity manager and we were impacted too. thanks crowd strike. I wont be surprised if this brings crowdstrike down.
  • @vmura
    the Malware protection software becomes the Malware
  • Just proves we rely on technology too much and it’s very bad
  • This has to be the funniest thing in the business world ever.
  • @gallopr
    Theres more issues with threat protection software than the threats 🤣
  • @fandyllic1975
    This is one of the few reports where software quality assurance was prominently mentioned… this is part of the problem.
  • @potato2941
    This is not a glitch! It’s failure to follow basic software QA and staged roll out. If the company just rolled out to it’s corporate PC they would have noticed this.
  • Crowd strike needs to beta test their update before deploying it to all the company’s
  • @glep3570
    So, how many people died due to this?
  • @k.anthony7460
    First covid, now power grid and global outages, next digital currency?
  • Power grids, Tech…… Texas, y’all are in trouble lol
  • Not everything is going to work all the time. It sucks for hospitals and people with cancelled flights, though.

    I work for a tech company and thankfully we were not affected. I updated my laptop to windows 11 which I understand wasn't affected. It's different windows ops that were affected. Everything has to be done manually to fix the issue which is why it will take time to get everything up and running. Glad it wasn't a cyber-attack given the fact that AT & T just had an attack recently and data of all its customers were breeched.

    I love that they gave their IT team a shout out.

    Watch it be some smart teenager living in mom and dad’s basement eating hot pockets with empty bottles of Mountain Dew. Lmao
