I straight up thought it was satire. How can you be so fucking detached. Basically caused the biggest information infrastructure disruption in human history, probably billions in losses, and then be like “my bad lol here’s a giftcard”.
I bet the Onion had an article about Crowdstrike offering the world a pizza party and expired Bed Bath & Beyond coupons to say they’re sorry. Real life might be quicker than satire, it seems!

Do we have any solid data on that yet? I have my doubts that this caused more damage than WannaCry did a few years ago, especially since it’s reversible without the need of a backup
Brother, or sister, I know fuck all about information technology. You make a good point and definitely know way more about this than i do. But I will say this, I don’t think wannacry disrupted millions of peoples travel plans all at once. so maybe less damage, but I think it was Hella more disruptive to the general population .
You joke but I read they may get out of this without issue due to a TOS entry about them not being responsible. They’ll still get dragged from shareholders and the government, but only a handful of large companies may be able to recoup some of those damages from the company itself.
It’s like the Sackler’s and the opioid epidemic from a different industry!
I can’t believe this isn’t satire. I hope these incompetent fuckers get sued into bankruptcy

I cackled loudly. $10 won’t even buy a meal at McDonald’s most places.
“Two feet on the gas” - Official Crowdstrike motto.

My first reaction was to look for the onion

There’s definitely some clause with the $10 gift card that says you can’t sue them if you actually take one lol.

I’m still not sure. It’s hard to believe anyone at their company would OK this idea.
Are they actually trying to deliberately kill their brand?
You haven’t heard? Satire is well and truly dead.
