If I were a Crowdstrike employee I'd be spending the day working on my resume. The company is undoubtedly going to take a big financial hit for this total faceplant.

Laxu is dead on. It boggles the mind how this wasn’t caught in testing, or more importantly, that they don’t do staggered rollouts so they minimize the exposure should something slip past during testing.

Crowdstrike can't be trusted.

My company uses it. It was a bit of a hellscape this morning, but we had guys working on it since 2am. Servers are easy, since they're all virtual, boot fast, and are easy to get to.
My Debian box, MacBook Air and Mac Mini had no issues this morning.......
