Basically a cloud based agent from scum cloud security software company CrowdStrike went awry.
(you might remember them as the Piece of Shit company that lied its ass off and said Hillary's server was hacked by Russia Russia Russia, and then later admitted this was a lie to help Hillary in court)

Seems to primarily affect Windows servers, I suppose anyone running CrowdStrike agents.

All major airlines full ground stop. Many banks having issues

Also affecting a lot of others, my wifes corp computer got the blue screen and she can't boot up. I placed a Home Depot online order and they actually called to tell me it has been picked but because of the outage, I probably won't get any notifications.

P.S
'Cloud computing" has to be the stupidest idea ever. NO I do NOT want all of my data in one place on the "cloud" for hackers to access thank you.
What you don’t value ease of use and simplicity over security and privacy?!? It’s 2024 my man get with the times it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread! :facepalm:

Only a Fucken moron would have their infrastructure tied to the so called Cloud First vs Local First! :smash:

As I said repeatedly I am just waiting for the entire internet to explode and shut down. Can’t wait because it’s going to be epic beyond anyone’s comprehension.

Wife works at small bank. Their systems are fine but many 3rd party systems they use are down effectively putting everything on hold
