This is the best summary I could come up with:

There are reports of IT outages affecting major institutions in Australia and internationally.

The ABC is experiencing a major network outage, along with several other media outlets.

Crowd-sourced website Downdetector is listing outages for Foxtel, National Australia Bank and Bendigo Bank.

CrowdsStrike + Microsoft is one hell of a drug.

It sounds like a good idea to get your software put in between business critical processes and charge a lot of money for it…

I really feel for all the techs worldwide who have to collectively deal with this mess across the millions of endpoints that now require manual intervention to fix since it can’t be reliably automated.
