CrowdStrike unhappy with “shady commentary” from competitors after outage

Basically they fucked up and don’t like the criticism from other companies/ customers.

Yeah, it was an international fuck up. You're going to get heat, and it's 100 percent deserved. Go cry in a corner and fuck off into oblivion.

They whine about this now, after they removed their “shady commentary” towards Microsoft from their website

Cry me a half billion dollar river, maybe we can use that money to fix all the damages it did.

“Our industry is built on trust,” Sentonas said

And instead of following that statement with an apology to all the companies and people they royally fucked in the ass with their shitty business practices, they instead whined about other people pointing out what a massive, colossal, and completely preventable fuckup this was.

Good going sealing my resolve to never use crowdstrike.

Crowdstrike didn't just fuck up, they killed people. I personally had to postpone a blood test, but mine wasn't critical and I'm alive to complain. Not everyone is.

Awww, let's all feel bad for the rich, shitty company that has shitty quality control.

I don't see the other companies fucking up so badly though.

CrowdStrike customers 'unhappy' with CrowdStrike

They lambasted Microsoft in their marketing materials but when others do it to them it's no fair? lol

Compare the live page with the archive.
Looks like someone softened their language after the disaster, eh?

In similar news, Enron says that people should stop being ambulance chasers by calling them out for corruption, fraud, and illegal activities.

ClownStrike had a massive, glaring issue with their main functionality that is THEIR COMPANY’S ONLY REASON FOR EXISTING that has been correctly attributed to criminally inept architecture decisions, no redundancy, no checks, no safety measures, and no accountability.

If I made the executive decision to design a system without any safety measures that could potentially push unchecked, malicious code to 90% of the computers that the business world runs on, I would be sued into dust. Honestly, if there were any justice in the world, the people at CrowdStrike that designed such a shite system should do actual prison time for their ineptitude.

Somebody should call them a wambulance since their fee-fees got hurt.

Sorry but some fields have no margin for error, just take the L and shut up.

I wonder if they'll end up doing a rename / rebrand if "ClownStrike" continues to haunt them (as it should).

If they do, I'm sure the new name will be some focus tested aberration they pay way too much for.

Youre a verb now, guys. That’s what happens when you fuck up that badly. Deal with it <3

make 8 million computers crash

other companies say you're trash

blame others

cry

Nothing shady about that commentary after seeing how they screwed up. I couldn't believe how amateur hour the cause of the crash was (the program not validating definition file contents, which spectacularly failed when fed a file consisting only of zeroes). They should rename themselves to ClownTrike.

They deserve to go bankrupt after that level of damage. I won't be surprised if a class action comes against them for gross negligence within the next few years. They're cooked and they know it.

Maybe you shouldn't have taken down half the world's airlines.

People do tend to notice shit like that.

Please proper nomanclature, clownstrike as in 🤡🤽‍♀️

And their customers are unhappy with the catastrophic service failure. Cry me a river.

I appreciated the RiskyBiz episode with the Sentinel one guys where they go over all the ways this could have been prevented if they did real testing

Crowdstrike absolutely deserves the shit they're getting.

Companies all over the world shutdown because of their incompetence. They do not deserve to be in the security business.

I think that's just called "living down an epic fuck up" but you know it's their company and they can cry if they want to.

Making millions, failing, causing global damage, then crying when people comment is quite nice and not at all hypocritical.

Womp womp, that's what happens when you shut down the global economy clownstrike

Did they try offering a $10 gift card to the other companies? "hah psyche!"

🤡💥

Well companies serve humans. Be better

I am not in the knows about IT security at all, but isn't fucking up part of any security company? You can make shitty comments all you want but who says your company isn't the next one to fuck up?

Maybe you shouldn't have CRASHED THE FUCKING PLANET

ah yes, strike the crowd, that'll help your reputation

Permanently Deleted

Boo hoo, go fuck yourself.

We don't blame the leopards for eating faces. We blame the morons who let an external entity have control over their devices. And a clowd one at that.

I just wish they made it a feature, or something, cause I really dislike working and stuff

so what, mental outlaw?
