This global internet outage is insane! All airlines grounded and i was stock the airport and even banks, media, and offices from the U.S. to Australia. How can CrowdStrike have such a monopoly that could help restore such a massive amount of tech?

It's pretty concerning. If they can fix this, what other control do they have over our infrastructure? or are we truly in the matrix?

Right? It makes you think about the stability of our systems. But hey, I barely spend time online. When I checked my portfolio with Desiree Ruth Hoffman, we were still in the greens. That’s been the case for 16 months straight!

Wow, really? I've seen the name Desiree Ruth Hoffman before but can't figure out where.

Probably from her forecast on Nvidia before the pump. But how are you in the greens with all the fluctuations due to the election and everything else? Can you share her strategy?

Honestly, just schedule a call with her. She has vast knowledge in finance and really knows how to navigate these times. I handed over my portfolio to her so I can focus on my family. These days, things just get scarier and scarier.

OK so almost 9 1/2 minutes into this, and the answer is that the update "wasn't tested thoroughly." This is a global cybersecurity company who basically pushed an update that wasn't ready yet. Kind of like trying to drive a car from the dealer and the wheels come off because some bolts weren't tightened properly.

If you don't want to listen to 23 minutes of this I'll give a summary: 1. update wasn't tested properly. 2. Crowdstrike will test better in the future and 3. Crowdstrike will allow customers to control the timing of updates.

Does this scare the hell out of anyone other than me?

did they recently lay off a bunch of competent people? why does a company worth 65-70 BILLION USD not have much of a support team? have they not watched Jurassic Park?

To call this a "glitch" is to trivialize the whole thing. It makes it sound like the computer did something wrong, the computers affected only did what they were told to do by humans. This is the result of incompetent software design, failed or non-existent quality assurance and quality control, and failed or non-existent testing procedures. Who knows how many people suffered aggravated injuries or deaths or their house burned down because of 911 systems being down. Who knows how many people suffered aggravated conditions or deaths because of delayed medical procedures because of hospital systems being down. Crowdstrike is 100% responsible for all of this. They are also responsible for any and all financial damages that were suffered by any of their victims. I call them "victims" because they truly are, through no fault of their own, they have suffered loss. Crowdstrike needs to be held both civilly and criminally responsible for all damages. If anyone died, then charges of negligent homicide need to be filed, people need to be tried, convicted and jailed.

Exactly. They pushed an update that wasn't fully ready, like buying a car and the.wheels fall off because the bolts weren't tightened, and then blaming the car!

Has anybody ever made an analysis which countries were concerned? I have only heard of European countries, Singapore and Hong-Kong and the US. Any other country?
