A mass IT outage worldwide

[Forester]

Microsoft outage live updates: Worldwide travel and banking hit after cybersecurity update causes IT chaos (e.g.)
(Simply said, one fucked up update for Crowdstrike security sw for MS Windows made millions of MS Windows controlled computers, MS Azure cloud included, unusable. A manual intervention on-site seems to be needed to repair.)


Are you affected? (I am not, to prevent questions.)

Lesson: Do not use Microsoft systems; do not use cloud (as possible).

Saw it in the news an hour ago.

I thought Microsoft was stable after Windows 95

 

[Martin Everson]

I saw this also and just looks like an innocent update release that went wrong - worse than some Nvidia driver updates that crash your whole PC also . Luckily I don't use anything MS related and not seen anyone I know affected by it.

Then I looked into co-founder of Crowdstrike . Again totally unrelated but I am sure people will be like

P.S How ironic that the software suppose to prevent cyber attacks ended up causing one itself...lol.

It seems that a popular joke about the end of the world being most likely caused by one messed Apple software update has a solid basis

if nothing else then this event will hopefully make people realize that so-called antivirus software is a way bigger problem than the virus threat itself

Glad to see Microsofts monopolization is strong in this capitalist world.

I know of a company that currently has about 30k Windows endpoints down. Fortunately they are able to perform the workaround, but this has to be done manually... for each device.

The coming weeks will not be enjoyable for IT departments managing CrowdStrike.

Nothing new to see here, just another BSoD.
Been experiencing it since Win 2.1. The world will survive.

Or it was this guy:

 

[void]

there are so many clear and gentle signs... banal covid (instead of some really dangerous airborne virus), senile US president, BLM, blocked Suez canal, now this.... events that should immediately wake people up and make them realize how fragile, centralized and dysfunctional world has become and rethink.... yet it's hard to expect anything to change, brainwashed voters will be promised order, safety and prosperity on the account of others and nothing will ever change until it's too late

Ah Crowdstrike, the firm that claimed Russian election interference, but later had to walk it back. And are part of the Global Cyber Alliance, which is part of the WEF-led effort to force you to adopt digital ID for internet access to stop what they define as "cybercrime".

Dmitri is MORE American than Trump and Hulk Hogan combined! That guy will SELL (and k1ll) his Russian mother and grandmother to be welcomed as a "red-blooded" American.

I went to college with so many of these types of sell-outs! They just couldn't understand why I wanted nothing to do with that American passport in the '80s! Those same guys are struggling in the US and STILL can't wrap their heads around the fact that some of us do NOT want to live there or be part of that "gang."

Let them BURN!

Worldwide or only countries using Microsoft?

I wrote something to the extent of Dmitri being a sell-out even before reading your comment, and I was NOT aware that they, Crowdstrike, pushed the Russian interference claim, but NOW...I am totally NOT surprised! Actually, I totally expect it now.

I will never regret switching to MX-Linux.
Free, quick as f**k, and no outage or other Microsoft bulls**t.

Guess which OS will go down during the WEF global cyberattack? The popular one of course.
To really scare the plebs, they'll have to attack IOS and Android, and disrupt communication and life of people.


Attached image to show that all the WEF global risks are manufactured,

Nr. 1: Weather modification and consequences (a la China, Dubai, Thailand, Japan, I guess everywhere)
Nr. 2: Censorship and programming through media, centralized A.I. full of restrictions and disinformation.
Nr. 3: Who promoted black-white conflicts to divert from occupy Wallstreet? People, or media and politics? Divide and conquer, since 3000 A.D.
Nr. 4: Created through money-printing for any popular cause, for example corona scare, Ukraine war, and whatever comes next. It's not without any consequences, and inflation is the logical reaction.
Nr. 5: Pretty much all spyware originates in Israel and is sold to governments, guess who gonna do the next 'cyberattack'?

great to see they publish the "risks" which they are creating themselves.

To say these people are sick f*ckers is a massive understatement. How they have NOT been taken out yet is a mystery to me!

By the way, they are taken out routinely. This has been happening since I remember as a teenager in the '80s. Mainstream media does NOT publicize them. This one happened right after 9/11 in Zug, so it was lost on most people. The Zug massacre took place on 27 September 2001 in the city of Zug (Canton of Zug, Switzerland) in the canton's parliament. Friedrich Leibacher shot dead 14 people before killing himself. Leibacher was armed with a civilian version of a Stgw 90, a SIG Sauer pistol, a pump-action shotgun, and a revolver, and wore a homemade police vest. In the years before the massacre, Leibacher drew attention to himself through repeated lawsuits. These were dismissed, so he assumed he was being persecuted by the state and felt he had to resort to violence. In the aftermath of the shooting, gun laws in Switzerland were tightened and changes in security were enacted.

This event turned Zug around. The useless scumbags got scared and delved into ethics and moral philosophy as the alternative was not "an option."

They are the ones taking people out.
Legalized organized crime, holding on to their power and trying to expand their 'hood'.
That pretty much describes the EU and NATO nowadays, and USA since the 20th century,
oh, did I forget the UK and the 'royals'?
And may I see Epstein's and pedo friends' flight-log (I know, I am dreaming, we'll never see it)?

The 'elite criminals' are busy creating 'important issues like global cooling....ahm...warming....ahm....change' and conflicts, to divert the attention of the plebs from recognizing that they exhorted by criminals, and their tax money is just being laundered and diverted, while their quality of life, privacy and freedom are being eradicated.

It's just a question of time before they get chipped like farm animals they actually are.

Thanks for sharing. I admit I have missed it. (It's true that CH was not inside my perimeter these times.)
It reminds me the Nanterre massacre (Nanterre massacre - Wikipedia) from (roughly) the same time. It is interesting that this massacre was paralleled with the Toulouse and Montauban shootings (Toulouse and Montauban shootings - Wikipedia) ten years later, however it had no similar roots, IMO.

But we are remarkably off-topic. Well, we are in Let's Talk... but anyway.
