And next time facebook hosts a summit about data privacy.

Or the UN allowing Saudi Arabia to lead the Woman’s Rights forum
The funny part is people still believe the UN represents peace and freedom, instead of the financial interests of the wealthiest countries and oligarchs.
Less concerned about Crowdstrike since it’s not their product.
More concerned about Copilot:

This 3rd party software company fucked up and M$oft get the pressure, so they act like they are responsible.
Even the customers fucked up by using a vital piece of software where they cannot test the updates before rollout.
A third party vendor whose entire business model is predicated on the fact that security is such an afterthought at Microsoft that enterprise customers need to resort to this kind of crap for a bare minimum of security.
Never said it didn’t. Doesn’t change the fact that Microsoft is notoriously worse by every metric and because of its position in the market is far more potentially damaging. Almost like if you sell an OS as something that can be trusted to run mission critical applications, you probably shouldn’t phone it in when it comes to securing that OS.
This is also MS’s fault because they never provided a proper API for security products like MacOS, so they end up having to run them all inside the kernel.
The reason for this omission was to give a competitive advantage to their own security products while also being cheaper.
This 3rd party software company fucked up
NO.
Clowntrike didn’t fuck up. They offered an externally-managed service that people allowed into their network because they didn’t really clue in how monumentally stupid this is. You’re blaming the gas station for blowing up your car or the leopards for eating your face. Customers who actually gave them money - the people who struggle with “that’s hot, so don’t touch it” - are a dime a dozen, and clowntrike was just taking advantage of the stupid. This has been the American way since snake oil salesmen during the gold rush.
We fucked up by not watching our stupider techbro friends better suited to a ward somewhere than a c-suite job. We should have been ridiculing them mercilessly so their shame would make them choose better.
Your PC ran into a problem that Microsoft couldn’t handle.
Didn’t 5h3y just release an update that bricked dual boot installs. Something tells me someone else should be organising this. Someone that actually cares.
