CrowdStrike causes mass outage worldwide

After recent CrowdStrike fiasco, clients are offered a £8 ($10) UberEats voucher

After the recent CrowdStrike faulty software update, causing most windows machines running the software to indefinitely bluescreen, CrowdStrike offered an £8 (or $10) giftcard for UberEats - which definitely covers the estimated £4.2 billion ($5.4 billion) loss due to the 2+ days worth of downtime - with some stating it may take up to weeks for all computers to return.

This issue has caused major disruptions in all parts of the world - mainly because tons of companies seemed to have relied on it - some examples include delayed, rescheduled, or cancelled flights, hospital appointments. And with the only ways of undoing this being to supposedly restart the device 15 times, or deleting a .CIS file (which generally you can only do if the device hasn't bluescreened already).

Both of these recovery methods may not be do-able on embedded systems such as ATMs, Point Of Sales, Medical Devices, and Digital Signage. Three of which being relatively important for living in the 21st century.

If this wasn't fixed quickly, here at CTTC, we hypothesized an apocalyptical fallout world-ending event, where we all submitted to our lord and savior, Mr Blobby.
