That's not how that works. CS didn't have at the time, an option to disable channel file updates. It's how their edr works. Delta's mssp or secops group, %100 knew this as it's in CS own documentation. They really don't have a foot to stand on here, but CS will pay it to make it go away.
Yes, that's the crux of the accusation. Given the large number of people who seemed to be under the impression that selecting a staggered release cadence would protect them from a faulty update, it's not unreasonable to think that people were caught off guard by a second autoupdate system that they couldn't configure that could also tank their system.
Before this, you could throttle the rollout for channel files. You could knock it down to 1 a minute if you wanted.
Channel files were not something that CS admins didn't know about.
