>teh y2k bvg, but it actually happenderino!!!!!!!!!!
jokes aside though it was not just bsod's, some/majority of the pc that were affected were either bootlooping or on a "recovery" screen, not everything is as it seems after all, right? they technically count as "bsod's" but they're not bsod's.

Not actually Microsoft who are to blame this time.
Would have been less of an issue if Windows automatically rolled back the faulty software update to the crowdstrike software component that caused this, but as it is security software there are safeguards against that to hinder malware from doing exactly that.
Poor QA and testing.

psyop because of the trump election
ms shouldve tested the code before pushing it out.

They didn't push it out though, it not being their code.
Which you would have known if you read anything beyond the headlines.
CrowdStrike Holdings were the ones who pushed an update to a component of their security suite - Falcon Sensor, that update was broken and knocked out Windows computers running that particular flavour of CrowdStrike software.
ok.
this can only be good for linux adoption in the long run
Think You Have It Bad Because Your Flight Got Cancelled? The CrowdStrike CEO Can’t Race This Weekend - The Autopian
I’m sure by now you’ve already heard about the CrowdStrike Windows Outage, said to be the largest IT outage in history. Perhaps you know about it because you’re surrounded by the blue glow of computers displaying the infamous “blue screen of death,” or maybe you’re stuck at an airport because...

LOOK AT HIS HAIR LOL
deboonked: unix-based systems (including the inferior mac os) were unaffected by the "bugged" update.
keep it up and i'm writing that bot
Are you gonna watch the video? Its not just animation, its live action.

--‐----- Extended post from my friend ------------
As a Windows IT Intel Analyst Server Network Analyst with 20 years of experience, I want to clarify that a Microsoft update or a CrowdStrike update cannot bring down all the 911 systems, ground airplanes, or shut down banking systems worldwide. These critical systems do not run on Windows-based platforms. They are typically based on robust systems like IBM i-Series mainframes and Unix platforms.
1. **Banking Systems**: Financial institutions use highly secure and reliable systems such as IBM i-Series and Unix to ensure customer data protection and compliance with regulations [[❞]](https://www.crowdstrike.com/solutions/financial-services/) [[❞]](https://www.crowdstrike.com/cybersecurity-101/patch-management/).
2. **911 Systems**: Emergency services infrastructure is built on specialized, fault-tolerant hardware and software designed to maintain high availability and reliability, often leveraging Unix-based systems for their robustness.
3. **Flight Systems**: Aviation systems, including flight control and operations, are governed by stringent regulatory standards and often run on Unix or proprietary platforms specifically designed to ensure safety and security.
A CrowdStrike update affecting these systems is improbable because CrowdStrike's Falcon platform focuses on endpoint protection and integrates with systems like IBM QRadar and Resilient to provide enhanced security, not to interfere with the core functionalities of non-Windows systems [[❞]](https://community.ibm.com/community/user/security/blogs/dixon-styres1/2020/10/15/crowdstrike-and-ibm-security-integrations-deliveri) [[❞]](https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/datastage-jobs-hang-after-site-deploys-crowdstrike-falcon-sensor-update-script-based-execution-monitoring).
In a rare case, there was an issue where CrowdStrike's Falcon sensor affected IBM's DataStage jobs due to script-based execution monitoring. However, this was a specific instance and not related to the broader infrastructure of critical systems [[❞]](https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/datastage-jobs-hang-after-site-deploys-crowdstrike-falcon-sensor-update-script-based-execution-monitoring).
To conclude, it's crucial to understand that the architecture of these essential systems is designed to be independent of Microsoft Windows updates. I hope this helps dispel any misinformation and encourages a more informed understanding of IT infrastructure.
