All our servers and company laptops went down at pretty much the same time. Laptops have been bootlooping to blue screen of death. It's all very exciting, personally, as someone not responsible for fixing it.

Apparently caused by a bad CrowdStrike update.

Edit: now being told we (who almost all generally work from home) need to come into the office Monday as they can only apply the fix in-person. We'll see if that changes over the weekend...

What lawsuits do you think are going to happen?

They can have all the clauses they like but pulling something like this off requires a certain amount of gross negligence that they can almost certainly be held liable for.

Whatever you say my man. It's not like they go through very specific SLA conversations and negotiations to cover this or anything like that.

I forgot that only people you have agreements with can sue you. This is why Boeing hasn't been sued once recently for their own criminal negligence.
