Good news for crowdstrike! It shows how critical their services are. Stock to go up! (And down a bit when they get sued, and up a bit when they don't get sued too much, etc.)

Take a look at their stock right now.

Tried, "Real time quote data is not available". Big brain move, can't crash the stock price if the nasdaq is offline..

Google tells me "Pre-market 295.00 −48.05 (14.01%)"

That's 85.99% too high.

Yes, this has had no (statistically significant) effect.

Pre-market is -12% down at the moment of writing this. I'd say this definitely has an effect.

CrowdStrike achieved PMF - Product-Market Fiasco!

I was just at Coles, one of Australia's big 2 supermarkets.

50% of the self-serve terminals were down. Presumably the others aren't far behind.

Total chaos.

Sky News (UK) is back on air, but they seem to have no astons / chyrons / on screen graphics at all, and I don't think they're able to show prerecorded material either (it's just people in the studio from what I've seen), so presumably they're still having fun issues with their general production systems.

Oh, look at that, TV has suddenly become watchable without all of the scrolling garbage all over the screen.

But my attention span! Nooo!

Just got their ticker back at 09:42 !

Having another look in, it looks like they're overlaying a static banner along the bottom rather than having a fully working graphics system still (as off 11:30), as that's the only graphics I've seen.

I have seen some pictures shared of vending machines with BSOD.. why would you have an EDR on a vending machine? To protect the valuable assets?!

If the vending machine handles credit cards, wouldn't Visa / Mastercard / etc. basically require it as part of their security requirements? Or it's just general CYA from someone that's backfired badly.

presumably they handle credit card transactions

"It's a vending machine that sells back physical stolen credit cards." Input the dollars, receive stolen credit card. Put it next to an airport terminal for maximum impact.

Schipol (Amsterdam, europe's largest) and Melbourne Airport are down

> - Services at London Stock Exchange disrupted

just their news service.

> The London Stock Exchange says it's working as normal - but says there are problems with its RNS (regulatory news service).

> "RNS news service is currently experiencing a third party global technical issue, preventing news from being published on www.londonstockexchange.com," the statement says.

> "Technical teams are working to restore the service. Other services across the group, including London Stock Exchange, continue to operate as normal."
