Global IT 'disaster' affects airlines, banks and broadcasters across the world
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…

someone at crowdstrike used kernel-level access in windows, opened a blackbox winlogon, accessed the system and tried to read from memory address 0x9c which is near a null pointer, 0x0. they then tried to mass update this on a grand scale to every windows user all at once without any tests being done which would have produced blue screens, very unlikely to be accidental
Why is this outfit not being sued for a massive amount?
Surprised that it wasn't blamed on Muslims or migrants 😂
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.
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 !!!
Obviously a trial run for what is to come
Plandemic, now this. What's next?. Imagine a cashless society – no plan B. No way of buying food or petrol!.
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.
Microsoft cloud is useless. It is time to do the old-fashioned way. Update wirhout WIFI.
JDV is a puppet of PT , his work history is BS .. stop pushing BS
Don't know if it's related, but the National Lottery app isn't working this morning.
Full moons been out for a while
🇩🇪
Solar flares
Technically speaking not around the world, since 2 biggest countries such as Russia and China were not affected as they have moved away from using MS and other foreign softwares at least on their major entities and govt institutions. The irony though, is this was a result of sanctions from US and their counter-sanctions. Lol…
Paperwork reduction act should be re-thought out.
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.
Covid killing millions. Airoplanes suddenly having turbulence problems. Internet going down. 100 other strange problems. Maybe the people in the loby are trying to shut us all down? Strange years coming ahead of us.
Strange I just asked how my mom died next day all hospital pc die wtf
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……
Ha
Plan B Microsoft says it will happen again soon, Lol.
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
😨
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 $$
and the irony is that, it was predicted – without a measure of a backup plan…ironically, sky news was off air…..i remember watching a medical detective eposide, recently, where a disgruntled employee turned out to be the hacker. (not in this case)…so, with all the wrong planes and trains in all the wrong places – an act of god? really? cash only (as long as the banks have enough cash)….goes to show, that after 25 years, there is no "plan b"…y2k 25 later….less of giving and being philantrophopic, more of plan b…
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?….
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.
