Yeah, it was an international fuck up. You’re going to get heat, and it’s 100 percent deserved. Go cry in a corner and fuck off into oblivion.
I don’t see the other companies fucking up so badly though.
That one recently with the 2.3 billion record data breach is pretty bad, and we collectively had no way to prevent it since it was through a private company.
You don’t? Shit I see it all the time.

Crowdstrike is far from the first company to ship bsod and bootloop bugs, they just happened to have the one that had the widest impact. Windows and it’s ecosystem is buggy shit.
You see CrowdStrike level of bad all the time? Where? What? Who?
Equifax
damn i haven’t used Windows in over a decade. are y’all ok?
Rofl, like Unix OSes never have problems. Even developers, who are among the most tech savvy users, tend to drag their feet on installing updates unless forced.

Doubt
Windows users are never OK.
Cry me a half billion dollar river, maybe we can use that money to fix all the damages it did.
They whine about this now, after they removed their “shady commentary” towards Microsoft from their website

In similar news, Enron says that people should stop being ambulance chasers by calling them out for corruption, fraud, and illegal activities.
ClownStrike had a massive, glaring issue with their main functionality that is THEIR COMPANY’S ONLY REASON FOR EXISTING that has been correctly attributed to criminally inept architecture decisions, no redundancy, no checks, no safety measures, and no accountability.
If I made the executive decision to design a system without any safety measures that could potentially push unchecked, malicious code to 90% of the computers that the business world runs on, I would be sued into dust. Honestly, if there were any justice in the world, the people at CrowdStrike that designed such a shite system should do actual prison time for their ineptitude.

Or made a MS CEO…
/me glares at steve balmer
I wonder if they’ll end up doing a rename / rebrand if “ClownStrike” continues to haunt them (as it should).
If they do, I’m sure the new name will be some focus tested aberration they pay way too much for.
Yes 🤡
They deserve to go bankrupt after that level of damage. I won’t be surprised if a class action comes against them for gross negligence within the next few years. They’re cooked and they know it.
Please proper nomanclature, clownstrike as in 🤡🤽♀️
Companies all over the world shutdown because of their incompetence. They do not deserve to be in the security business.
Did they try offering a $10 gift card to the other companies? “hah psyche!”
Well companies serve humans. Be better
Worry about the future of your stupid failure of a company, not your stupid feelings. Think of the feelings you’ve hurt over your stupid incompetence.
Boo hoo, go fuck yourself.
I appreciated the RiskyBiz episode with the Sentinel one guys where they go over all the ways this could have been prevented if they did real testing
Crowdstrike absolutely deserves the shit they’re getting.
Oh god. Sentinel one is horrible. If they’re taking issue with your testing, you’ve really screwed the pooch
Horrible how? I’ve always thought they were pretty solid in the arena.
Their ftrace hooks caused all disk usage to be serialized, making your multi-core processor single-core when doing anything I/O bound
We saw between 500% - 800% increases in build times with their software installed
Well, that’s spectacular. What do you guys use now?
We’re still using them on machines where performance doesn’t matter
On build machines, they’re on a special VLAN and don’t have endpoint protection, but they only download from a protected mirror
