Dude the precident it would set if Delta sued Microsoft and won would be super damaging I'm glad it's not happening
Imagine being responsible for a software that is put on A system that you developed, with you being isolated/removed from the situation, it would be the content owners of websites being responsible for Stuff posted all over again
Imagine being responsible for forcing a security update on your customers without testing it.
Negligence absolutely applies here, Crowdstrike needs to be sued out of existence.
Fully agreed that crowdstrike is partly responsible, however my comment was based off of Microsoft not crowdstrike. Delta stated they were going to sue both crowdstrike and Microsoft, but they didn't actually go through with it
