You’re taking showerthoughts way too literally. It’s an exaggeration. The number didn’t “reverse” but it definitely multiplied. Businesses were impacted and who works for businesses? People who probably never heard of cloudstrike until it shut them down. It grounded flights and every person in an airport since then have probably heard the name. Anyone with a news app on their phone probably got a notification and know the company now. The number has drastically increased and that’s the point, not that it specifically “reversed.”

Not only is this showerthoughts, as you pointed out, but the person posting never provided numbers for those that were previously aware of crowdstrike. Any attempt to do so by those responding takes the statement beyond it’s intention.

Maybe he should have put the thing that did happen as the title.

But that’d be kind of boring, wouldn’t it.
