- A global IT outage is affecting major services including airlines, banks, healthcare and broadcasters across the world.
It is believed the meltdown is related to an issue at the software company Microsoft and global cybersecurity firm Crowdstrike - although it is unknown if it is the same problem is affecting airports and train services across the globe.
Here's the latest update:
- A global IT outage has caused massive disruption to various services
- IT security firm CrowdStrike says it has identified the issue and deployed a fix
- This is not a security incident or cyber attack, according to the firm
- Microsoft says a resolution for Windows devices is "forthcoming" and blames a third party after it issued an update
- The UK government says its COBRA emergency team is responding to the outage

Bit of gold and a bit of cash in a safe place seems like a sensible idea…
@@dondraper2488 Prophet Muhammad told us through a hadith about storing gold as a currency. Fiat money has no intrinsic value, and digital currency can fail when there's outages like this.
So a 74 billion pound company’s software team didn’t even run their own software for a test? Even before releasing it to seeming every company in the world.
very suspicious I agree
yeap, made in USA
@@tychodragon by design...
@@DominusTecum0917 Exactly they could test it in a virtual environment too.
This has been the dumbest fail of 2024, smh these megacorps are braindead.
Wait til it becomes permanent, and it will.
Why will the whole world entrust its IT infrastructure connection to a single company “Crowdstrike”? I just can’t work now because of this nonsense.
CrowdStrike is only one of a handful of major security firms. I guess the big companies entrusted that firm. This is the 2nd time in the last 6 years so what makes people think this is accidental? Nope.
@@HumbleGolds The more the west preach decentralization, the more they act opposed to it. It’s all adding up to something fishy.
I've been using exclusively Linux for a while now & love it. Not a lot of people know much about Linux, but it's honestly ready for mass corporate adoption in critical infrastructure. The open source element makes it extremely secure because of the amount of eyes on the code. It's a lot harder for bad actors to succeed and for bugs to exist when more people are looking at the code.
@@user-sy4jm8ip8b One even begin to wonder if these downtimes are deliberate and self inflicted by the these megacorps. Just imagine organization that are down due to this.
@@user-sy4jm8ip8b No, no and more no.. Companies have no clue about IT. They outsource and cloud source everything!

Not in a mean way that actually concerns me and interest me greatly
rip
Microsoft offline, Skynet online
Paperwork reduction act should be re-thought out.
So many F ups this year
People have become complacent and rely too much on technology. And when it caves in, people panic. Anything manmade can fail, so don't rely on paying everything by card......
This time it was CrowdStrike that caused a massive denial of service attack.
Maybe I shouldn't updated my computer!!😂
Like every week.. 😑
Sky Net was a security system to protect against attacks. :-(
like the safe and effective vaccine, two weeks to flattern the curve...
We had a major layoff and then didn’t have enough people to beta test the upgrade, so yeah… ha ha ha sorry
gotta love those higher ups sacrificing product and quality for profit
What will happen if Neuralink act like this in future
Dewadd😂😂
Thats why i will stay da hell away from the link.
Founded by Elon Musk it WILL be disaster just as cybertruck..
Almost a million views and only 39 comments??
Lucky theres any comments, in australia every news outlet has turned off commenting. Makes me bery suspicious
Yup being deleted
Too.... Shocked..... To....... Type..... My..... Feeels 😫
A global IT disaster hitting airlines, banks, and broadcasters all at once? That's a massive wake-up call about how connected and vulnerable our systems are. It shows we really need to tighten up and be prepared for anything.
I agree, not to mention the hospitals that were affected and major heart surgeries that needed to be rescheduled 😳. This should be a major wake up call.
Imagine this happens when we are in a global pandemic. Patient transfer chaos. People on ventilators and life support machines die just because a computer OS rolls out an update.
People in youtube keep telling us to have/hold CASH. They have given warni gs early on
..or guns..
😅😅😅 go back to paper and humans
What's a human?
...and don't rely on electricity
It's time for companies to switch to Unix/Linux based servers. The fact that Windows is such a poorly designed operating system that it requires a third party driver to protect it, makes it an undesirable platform. CrowdStrike couldn't have tested their roll out, so they are directly to blame. The fact that Windows allowed CrowdStrike to install a defective driver is Microsoft's fault. The lawyers and courts will have to sort out what the damage $ are. I switched to Linux over 15 years ago. Switching has proven to have been a great move on my part.
Stop putting all your faith in Tech, A.I. and Cameras then the world will be a better place. Your not even allowed to use cash in airports anymore because they want everything tracked and traced, then when stuff like this happens everyone goes back to the stone age. Cash is Key !!!
As of 6:30 EST there not back on line, who is he kidding?
SOME GOV'T SOMEWHERE DID A MASSIVE DATA SCOOP !
This is the result of Us hegemony. I am Chinese and we are not affected at all since Microsoft and its apps doesn’t affect our Internet.
Why is this outfit not being sued for a massive amount?
Updates on everything always makes things worse..
If this issue continues it would be a great idea to go back to old school ways of doing doing things, like accepting cash, and so forth.
Why use windows on critical infrastructure. Why not Debian ??? Companies would save money and can contribute to Linux. Chances of Debian crashing due to bad update is next to 0.
Its toooooooo hard. LOL. The internet runs on it, why not big businesses or infrastructure ? Unix or Linux
I love the little girl that ate the cornflakes in the children's story. She tried to eat it discreetly😃
How come that vital systems at airports or even more so at hospitals are getting updated without proper verification. A controlled system update is the responsibility of industrial consumers. Very irresponsible and amateurish behaviour. Most financial institutions e.g. verify each update before rolling out to individual workstations, but then there is money at risk and not lives as in case of hospitals
These hospitals still use windows 7. Maybe a place like a hospital although not perfect maybe run on their own
OS like a custom Unix OS. Planes in the sky are not using XP or windows, they use a customized Unix or Linux
computer OS.
@@Whitemike63 AFAIK, no Windows 7 computers are affected by Crowdstrike update crash. And neither does Windows 8/8.1. Both versions ended support 1.5 years ago and both no longer received updates since then.
@@r.a.6459 Yea I know Windows 7 for example has no updates for a long time. I do see some clinics and not too long ago Im sure I saw a Windows 7 setup still going at a hospital. The original poster is right about testing the updates first with a virtual machine but also the IT guys hired for these businesses are to blame as some of it is human error. Virtual machines or the program that needed that update would be safer on a Unix setup which can be customized. Most the internet runs on Linux/unix servers and if what happened yesterday hit Linux too, then the internet would be blacked out with everything offline. I hope the power companies or other important places are using good IT practices. 1 guy said using sandboxing would have prevented lots of damage also using limited privilege accounts over the default admin is much safer.
If i were a conspiracy theorist, this would make me very suspicious .🧐
Don't know if it's related, but the National Lottery app isn't working this morning.
I was lucky that time. Blue screen flickered and was able to get back to work. Some of my colleagues couldn't log back in.
Dr. Wily returns.
Hopefully it doesn't get worse cos I'm due to fly to Dublin from Gatwick next week with Ryanair who apparently got affected pretty badly as well
Dodged a bullet perhaps
😨
Its all crumbling down
Crowdstrike? Havent heard of them since 4chan scandal 4yo ago
For a long time, the US has invested a huge amount of money and resources in the military field, engaging in militaristic aggression and constantly expanding its military influence globally. Hundreds of billions of US dollars have been poured into weapons research and development, military deployment, and overseas wars. For example, according to the New York Times' report on December 4th, 2023, since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict in February 2022, the US has spent 72.2 billion US dollars on Ukraine. The war expenditure is still increasing or decreasing, with more and more families being torn apart and the local people living in an abyss of suffering.

Tough luck
The world is falling apart
What does all this mean
All this means as people better get their lives right with God. This is the second test - and people are failing it just like they failed the one in 2020

plenty of time for microsoft and cloudstrike, between the dawn of day in australia, to the time i was sat in the bath, hours later in the uk...so covid said "card only"...the y2k bug was predicted...so why 25 years later?....

Strange I just asked how my mom died next day all hospital pc die wtf

The Fall of Babylon
1After all this I saw another angel come down from heaven with great authority, and the earth grew bright with his splendor. 2He gave a mighty shout:
“Babylon is fallen-that great city is fallen!
She has become a home for demons.
She is a hideout for every foula spirit,
a hideout for every foul vulture
and every foul and dreadful animal.b
3For all the nations have fallenc
because of the wine of her passionate immorality.
The kings of the world
have committed adultery with her.
Because of her desires for extravagant luxury,
the merchants of the world have grown rich.”
Obviously a trial run for what is to come
End times
Solar flares
When the world is codependent in such an extreme way to tech the power of those who own and operate it is immense....Follow the ones with the solution, hopefully its not the same entity $$
No
It was a little warning to NATO.
Far worse could happen in all sectors and cannot be fixed.
An EMP by a rogue nation or a CME by the sun is capable of destroying the world's electric grid. If the grid goes down, it'll take years to fix, if there's manpower and resources remain. Total anarchy can descend within 72 hours after attack. Remember to prep. Live self sufficient. Be like Amish.
