- A widespread CrowdStrike issue cased an outage that is disrupting flights, banks, media outlets and companies around the world.
Escalating disruptions continued hours after the technology company said it was gradually fixing an issue affecting access to Microsoft 365 apps and services.
The website DownDetector, which tracks user-reported internet outages, recorded growing outages in services at Visa, ADT security and Amazon, and airlines including American Airlines and Delta.

Do we understand why one company controlling everything is a bad thing yet?
They still haven’t woken up yet.😂
Exactly
You dealing with microsoft bro they're multi billionair company so why you even worried about one company controlling you
they will never learn 😢
Do you yet understand that getting your news from the media is a bad thing yet?
Its not a Microsoft outage.
I woke up at 1am to this as an IT professional for local government. The issue was with a crowdstrike deployment. Crowdstrike is security and antivirus protection so it is pretty ironic that they caused an issue as bad or worse than what they are supposed to protect from
You want news people to know that BSODs aren’t unique to the corporate world or actually that the problem is with a third party security service that updated systems with a poorly vetted “update”
To be fair, you cant get viruses if you cant access the pc to begin with 😂
Sounds like McAfee antivirus lol
Oh Reaallly????🙄🙄
As the owner of an IT business this is nothing but $$$ for me
Imagine happening with digital currency scheme. Can't even get a cup of coffee. If it's down, you're down.
Pay in cash when possible. We need to keep it circulating. If we don't use it, we will lose it.

nothing like having a single point of failure in our technology
Pure genius

I grew up in a generation where computers were just becoming common and people were expected to all become tech experts in the future. Now a few decades have passed and society is more ignorant of technology than it ever had been since the invention of the computer.
That’s because these engineers have abstracted away everything and pushed everything into the cloud
We're more dependent on tech than ever before and that tech is increasingly moving out of our hands. "Trust in the cloud" and "Don't open or service your own equipment" and constant updates and being always online has removed the need to have any tech skills. Even if we had the skills most tech won't let you easily manipulate it and you have to resort to backdoor methods just to try and fix something yourself.
So...we are more ignorant on computer now than back then?
That simply doesn't make sense. And this comment has little to do with what's actually happening. This is an issue created by engineers, not by society as a whole being ignorant.
@@randomstuff508 We used to have to diagnose what was wrong with our computer, then find the correct patch for our particular computer to fix it, then unzip those patches, then find the correct file to put that patch to fix our computers. This was VERY common. Don't even get me started on what we did when we got a new audio or graphics card. If that did not work, we started over and tried again til we got it fixed. So yes, people today are ignorant on the computer compared to back then.
Right, its so fucked up now that old people have to tell us how fucked up it is while using using them perfectly fine.
if this was caused by a hack, don't expect anyone to inform the public.
Facts they not gonna admit it was a cybersecurity attack so other countries don’t try

Our whole facility at UPS on the nightshift had a catastrophic failure because of this.

maybe they should swap Operating systems. MS sucks.
Same at Amazon 😅

How does the world’s foremost computer system designer consistently mess up important stuff like this? We have become so dependent on the internet that someone’s little mistake ends up screwing over everyone
How? Because you all allow it. You accept whatever garbage quality of product Microsoft makes, getting worse year after year, because you're addicted to tech. As William Burroughs once opined: "The drug dealer does not improve and simplify his merchandise. He degrades and simplifies the client."
@@videt7459 so I chose the companies we rely on to use their products? I alone can stem the tide of this? We individuals have little choice as it’s was thrust upon us.
Firstly - use whatever you want. You use Microsoft because it actually does work.
Secondly - who is consistently messing stuff like this up? The complexity of these systems is so incredible its almost a miracle it actually works.
Thirdly - when was the last time you had a major outage that was caused by Microsoft?
Fourth - this wasnt even caused by Microsoft - it was a security vendor update.
Fifth - why does anyone listen to random people on the internet smh.
@@yt.damian smh, your last point there was hilarious as obviously you do as you took the time to respond lol you can make points and your argument without being a holier than thou condescending jacka** lol

Isn’t Bill Gates involved in the pharmaceutical industry as well? That’s comforting
Yes. This situation is freaky, too
Yes and Bill Gates personally updated your computer just to crash it. Be afraid.
Coincidence????
He hasn't worked at Microsoft for a long time, he's not even on the board of directors anymore, so he has nothing to do with this.
@@NancyDVI Exactly!
This is what we expected y2k to feel like 😮
No they expected planes falling out of the sky. Satellites crashing back into the earth. The power grid failing.
I remember that, and nothing happened.
@@joeymiller5331definitely
@@heatherrainwater4483
To be fair, a lot of tech people worked around the clock up to the impending date to prevent y2k from affecting things. Since years were stored as 2 digits, some important stuff had to be updated to the 4 digit quickly, or everything marked as 00 for 2000 would have been interpreted as 1900 or worse.
I know our work has some bad data still where some invalid things were marked to start at year 0001 because they only input 01 in the db. No one ever fixed them because they weren't important.
You can feel free to think of it as the thought of the problem was so scary that people all banded together to fix it before it could become a problem.
Y2K was the best example of risk management in all of human history.
1. Years ahead of time, people figured out it would be a problem - I first heard of it about 5 years earlier.
2. Every one was warned of the risks and could prepare for failures. Unfortunately, this went overboard with conspiracy theories and near panic in some cases.
3. Smart people spent years of difficult effort working to fix the computer systems before the failures would happen. These efforts worked and almost all problems were prevented.
Unfortunately, most people remember the warnings and panic but completely forget the years of work to prevent the problems. So now when they hear warnings about things such as climate change, forever chemicals, microplastics, etc, they ignore the warnings. People keep learning the wrong lessons.
Tell me again… why are monopolies good ?
“In order to fix this, we just need for more invasive access to your life”
Did they blame Russia already?
No way TO blame russia this time. The IT world knows who is at fault. Its a company called Crowdstrike. They pushed an update that is having a bad interaction with windows and causing an infinite loop of blue screen of death.
Its global... so its affecting Russia too. This was due a bad deployment not a security issue
Lol.
Bot.
@@XDemonicBeastX9 Nope, not a single issue here. Sanctions working as intended. Cheers!
"Crowdstrike" just think about how bad of a name that is now 😅

Wait, what? So.. One company messed up and it cause this much problem like a huge portion of the digital world stops.. That's a crazy system.
Well, that's what happens when you base your entire infrastructure off very fragile tech that's mostly untested, kept running with patchwork, and vulnerable to sooooo many different types of sabotage / damage.
EVERY IT PERSON ON EARTH : FORCING UPDATES IS THE WORST BUSINESS MODEL POSSIBLE!!!!! Microsoft replied : Shut up and eat these bugs, WEEKLY!
Third party update for Crowdstrike that is only used by businesses.
Has nothing to do with Windows.
Work at Amazon from yesterday until about an hour ago was, interesting, to say the least
We've become too dependent on the interconnectivity of the internet. There are few self-contained computer systems now. Our devices must communicate with a faraway server in order to function, and those servers all talk to each other. An analogy has been made to a house of cards....
It's by design. To have the ability to pull the plug on electronics
Domino effect
Okay Bob. Lol
No matter where you go, everyone’s connected
@@Megamon0001 I understand why some people want to "pull the plug" and live "off the grid". We've become very dependent on technology, and while interconnection is very handy for those who operate our systems, it's also dangerous. It's gone too far too fast, and the computers are running our lives instead of the other way around. Science fiction horror stories are becoming reality.
I got sent home from work last night cuz it shut down the entire companies sql database.💀 I noticed one of the computers randomly had a blue screen saying that a system recovery was unsuccessful.
A very comprehensive report from the Airport

WTF - don't IT departments vet/test an update before applying it? Whatever the update.
It's not a Microsoft update, it's a bad update/driver from a security company called Crowdstrike and if using them(Mac/windows/Linux) are affected. Always gotta be on Fridays, joy.
Has anyone else considered that maybe A.I. tried something and they were able to stop it or not?!?!?
Even my job as a hotel night audit was hell last night.
Thats not the real blue screen of death.
Most widespread blue screen probably in Windows history now🤣😭 more widespread than the real blue screen of death in one day
yeah, as someone who had a laptop at 11 … i’m very familiar and this isn’t it lmao
It's a semi BSOD, it's a quasi BSOD. Its the Diet Coke of BSOD's- just one calorie, not BSOD enough.
It’s just the bsod for windows 11, calm down
@@俺は誰でもない Don't be mad at me for using Windows 11. You calm down and learn how to use your computer. Maybe one day you will get the real BSOD.
CrowdStrike is causing this, not Microsoft..
Ya but it's Microsofts platforms that are having the issue...
Basically…….the backlog will be monstrous.
yeah, had to leave work early because of this crap. They owe me about 2 hours pay.
You know things are messed up when the smoothest running part of the airport is TSA.
Why are they calling this a Windows issues when it is a CrowdStrike issue? Crowd Strike just did a unintentional attack on Microsoft.
Because they work together and they should both know issues that are going to happen with updates. And how many times has Microsoft updates screwed up computers basically every single time they update.
Technology when there is no back up plan! Good grief!
It's actually related to an update from cybersecurity company...Crowdstrike. Yeah, that name checks out.
Did the same thing happen in the 2016 campaign right after they had the RNC conference when all the computers and phones and everything got hacked??
How are the cameras working live and theses reporters understand each other?
This is what this generations "Run on the Banks" is
The urge to switch to Linux grows.
Something isn’t adding up, what are they trying to do?
My local gas station was shut down this morning
There updates always cause problems even on home PCs. And like they say one program and or company runs everything. The government needs to step in and limit Microsoft from taking over the world.
All eggs in one basket. This is what happens when they put everything online on cloud subscription, long term money maker scheme for companies, bad for consumers and the world...very scary.
This is so frustrating when Microsoft outage everything shutting down if it’s coming back up slowly there’s also a crazy amount of headaches and concerns about the outage
Thats not the blue screen of death....
It absolutely is the bsod for windows 11
You would think that Southwest’s issues would have taught the industry to develop some kind of backup system that doesn’t rely on companies that aren’t impacted when their own products fail.
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.
Does anyone get sued ?
It just started so big companies will probably sue Microsoft for this and Microsoft will probably to Crowdstrike. Either way the lawsuit is gonna be massive.
That is an extremely purple coat. But I dig it!
Talk about poetic justice. Louis Rossmann's gotta be ecstatic about this! 🤣 Update terms of roofie the customer service broke the interwebs! 🤣🤣🤣
We would be better off not relying on this technology.
Watching this horrible event unfold comfortably on my Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit OS on my old work station.
Ironic how the windows 10/11 are vulnerable to such a epic fail..But I don't get problems like this on my old laptop.
Glad I lived before the raise of internet and AI..

watching this news on my windows pc, working fine.
It's a problem in croud strike not windows i think
Most likely only affecting Microsoft business.
Just drove someone to Oklahoma City from dfw airport on Uber bc of cancellations, this is wild
The friendly folks at the World Economic Forum predicted this would happen.
Stop putting all your faith into Tech, A.I. Computers and Cameras then the world will be a better place. Cash is Key !!! "But" they won't let you use it in airports because they want everything tracked and traced (for your safety) then when stuff like this goes on it's back to the stone ages.
Remeber the days of paper tickets?
its a test who wants to bet
So as someone who works at jfk this actually just looks like a regular day lol.
So this is an issue only at the charlotte airport?
