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.

It's okay, they sent out $10 gift cards for Uber Eats to apologize (that they immediately cancelled).

To their customers*. Not to the literally billions of people directly affected by their debacle.

To their partners*. Which I believe are companies that help out with support or something.
