This is why tech and data sovereignty are so important. If you depend on another country for your most crucial software and hardware, you will always be held hostage by them. This time was an accident because CrowdStrike didn't do their due diligence, next time it will be sanctions.
I think Crowd strike was a Democrat operation to clean and wipe everything regarding the assassination plot on Trump.

What's the fucking difference between running crowdstrike and Kaspersky ? The problems relies on you not having control over your host software updates and Kaspersky does the same thing. The only solution is running away from Microsoft
It’s simple, they didn’t place their tech dependency on a third country. That’s the importance of tech sovereignty. By placing your high security softwares in the hands of others, you’ll always be a hostage.
Crowdstrike needs to compensate tens of trillions of dollars in business and financial losses by banks, stock markets, airlines, financial institutions, government agencies, the shutdown of hospitals and affecting their patients in critical care, and tens of millions of inconvenienced passengers all over the world. Governments all over the world including the EU, should impose hundreds of billions of dollars in fines on Crowdstrike!
Isn’t it clear just from name? 😂 Everyone with suffix -sky is Slavic origin (strictly it is Polish family names, but a lot of owners living everywhere, mainly Russia, so in half cases it is Russians). Another famous example - Sikorsky, mainly known as inventor of helicopters. Kaspersky developing own antivirus from late 1980s. It is one of the oldest system.
Actually, when I read the news about this global incident, I had 2 questions: 1. How did Microsoft's garbage get involved in those industries where everything fell down? 2. How was it allowed to use cloud solutions and even Microsoft solutions in critical applications and services? Therefore, the answer is why neither Russia nor China was affected by this - it is not customary for us to use consumer operating systems in critical areas.
Its not a Microsoft problem or the people who have windows. It's for the people who havs crowdstrike security has the problem. Even I have win10 no problem for me, just that I don't use crowdstrike
For days the crash was described in the West as worldwide. It occurred to me at the time that at least half the world, Russia and China would not be affected.
It’s a double edged sword. It also meant that China and Russia are not as integrated with the rest of the world. That’s fine if you are a big country with a huge domestic market to be self sufficient. This approach may not work for countries with a small population / small market.
Apparently, OS-security will be another national security threat. If, I said IF, a country who highly relies on windows os, when troubles come, the US government can order their it company to “lock down” the whole country. Or unnecessary for whole country, just the military or police or medical system, by the excuse of “cyber virus” or something. Some countries might have their own os like windows or MacOs, like us and Russia, although normal people use windows or Mac, but like airports, hospitals, fire stations, police departments and other major government departments, we use our own os. I might not very convenient for using, but it’s absolutely ENOUGH and BETTER BETTER.
Are you from China? China is mainly using neoKylin or openKylin domestically on computers? Is that correct? Russia is using Astra Linux now. China should shift away from Windows as soon as possible for the reasons you mentioned.
@@randygraham926 actually, as what I know, you are right, our government departments and public officials are using Linux systems. But we the normal citizens are still using windows home edition or Mac. It’s unnecessary to ban windows or Mac on citizens and daily using, but we need to prepare for the emergency.
Regarding Russia, Crowdstrike does not sell its solutions in Russia, does not support Russian users due to the sanctions imposed by the US. Therefore, it is not surprising that there were no problems in Russia because of them.
Our companies in Russia also increasingly invest in hosting services on premise in closed perimeters so it cannot be hacked, spied by anyone, full control of data, and they have no global outages
First thing Russians do after setting up Windows is to disable an automated update function (which is damn hard, since Microsoft for some reasons made this near impossible even for above average user with LOTS of redundancy), because it have a habit of installing updates in most inconvenient time when you absolutely need your computer. Russians only install updates manually when some application refuses to work without it. If it works - don't touch it.
Because the Chinese government and state-owned enterprises already replaced American products with domestic cpus and operating systems 10 years ago. China has its own set of hardware and software standards that will operate without the US.

The test was well taken and passed with a high score for both countries. Confidence is running high for both. One of the major worries for China has been put aside.
Russia-Astra Linux
China-Kylin Linux
Exactly.
@@randygraham926 not to say I'm biased to Linux but I'm really getting bored with windows, because it just too much bloated ware which is privacy concerned to me. I'm a Linux gamer myself ever since proton compatible layer has been created back then, long b4 steam deck light the way to Linux as a gaming os.

True sovereign nations.
Viva Rusia Viva!
For all nations, this cataclysmic tech glitch teaches a great lesson in vulnerability and forces them in creating their new communication software in order to keep individual reliability in their financial, defense, intelligence and almost total functionality as a country.
Putin:”if you need backup, I have a copy for you 🤣”
The way to go China and Russia. Be self reliance and self sufficiency. The global majority are very eager for your help.
Urraaaaaaa Rusia y china las .mejores en tecnologia de orimera clase con la caida de Microsoft, o oaso nada en china ni Rusia❤❤😂🇨🇳🇷🇺
Getting out of the digital shackes of the West is just as important as getting out of their financial ones. BRICS and especially China and Russia are just about there already, not quite but almost done with that endeavor.
Funny I have a feeling that US tried screwing with China and Russia instead screwed themselve's and allies 😅😅😅😅 how freakin ironic
CrowdStrike struck what it was meant to protect.😂
its company name already scare china and russia to use their software, they could got strike anytime
Because they have better tech😂 that's why lots of ppls are switching to huawei
This current meltdown is only a first outlook to what has to come - while taking the bullshit in the IT sector to ever more im(or de-)pressing heights.
I press thumbs that the rest of the world take this event as paragon to how avoid things like that.
Cannot image that the USA'S government's leadership officials would switch to digital payments as in China with these types of glitches..The entire country's will be paralyzed..Nada Dinero for anything😂😅..
kudo to the chinese and the russian for their foresight.... self reliance!
@justme6275 Yeah good on them 2 but they were forced to do so. If USA wasnt so silly with their sanctions, both countries would probably also have suffered. So another USA sanction backfiring and embarrassing them again.
Both Russia and China moved a lot of critical infrastructure to Linux, which is not affected by Crowdstrike or other "upgrades" or Windows malware. Probably, too, Sysadmins are more diligent about security. In Thailand, we were not affected.
Het is godverdomme duidelijk waarom!!!! automatische updates ik word gek van de wereld zo stom te zijn!! kom op !!
What's the fucking difference between running crowdstrike and Kaspersky ? The problems relies on you not having control over your host software updates and Kaspersky does the same thing.
The only solution is running away from Microsoft
Do you see how fragile the United States really is. American society is deceiving itself.
Windows is garbage. I use Linux.
It’s simple, they didn’t place their tech dependency on a third country. That’s the importance of tech sovereignty. By placing your high security softwares in the hands of others, you’ll always be a hostage.
Crowdstrike needs to compensate tens of trillions of dollars in business and financial losses by banks, stock markets, airlines, financial institutions, government agencies, the shutdown of hospitals and affecting their patients in critical care, and tens of millions of inconvenienced passengers all over the world. Governments all over the world including the EU, should impose hundreds of billions of dollars in fines on Crowdstrike!
KASPERSKY IS BETTER COMPANY than Seton Hall accounting undergrad degree founded firm Crowdstrike
I just learned from this video that, Kaspersky, is a Russian company!
So, I've been supporting Russia without knowing it! NICE!
Isn’t it clear just from name? 😂 Everyone with suffix -sky is Slavic origin (strictly it is Polish family names, but a lot of owners living everywhere, mainly Russia, so in half cases it is Russians). Another famous example - Sikorsky, mainly known as inventor of helicopters.
Kaspersky developing own antivirus from late 1980s. It is one of the oldest system.
What this show is Uncle Sam can force/make/ask Microsoft to release hidden updates or turn off services that would impact foreign services.
Pretty sure because they don't use CrowdStrike, an american digital security company.
Actually, when I read the news about this global incident, I had 2 questions:
1. How did Microsoft's garbage get involved in those industries where everything fell down?
2. How was it allowed to use cloud solutions and even Microsoft solutions in critical applications and services?
Therefore, the answer is why neither Russia nor China was affected by this - it is not customary for us to use consumer operating systems in critical areas.
Google doesn’t use windows, why would Russia
The Linux software is stable and secure and you control it
Its not a Microsoft problem or the people who have windows. It's for the people who havs crowdstrike security has the problem. Even I have win10 no problem for me, just that I don't use crowdstrike
Yes, but I hate Windows so avoid it. But you're correct it was CrowdStrike that STRUCK.
Exactly I have a windows laptop but I do not have crowdstrike and no issues
@praveenspike The issue diod not affect home users much, just the big corporations who use it.
For days the crash was described in the West as worldwide. It occurred to me at the time that at least half the world, Russia and China would not be affected.
Ridiculous, people talk as if they don’t use Windows. I don’t know about Russia but Chinese companies still highly use Windows.
Learning from Rus and Sine is very necessary 🤔
All and every argument aside - it just goes to show how vulnerable we are to a *SERIOUS* digital attack...
Crowdstrike strucks the crowd with downtime.
US software is a national security risk
Because Russia and China de-couple from the West
It’s a double edged sword. It also meant that China and Russia are not as integrated with the rest of the world. That’s fine if you are a big country with a huge domestic market to be self sufficient. This approach may not work for countries with a small population / small market.
The question being: did it affect Crysis? I mean, North-Korea?
Apparently, OS-security will be another national security threat. If, I said IF, a country who highly relies on windows os, when troubles come, the US government can order their it company to “lock down” the whole country. Or unnecessary for whole country, just the military or police or medical system, by the excuse of “cyber virus” or something. Some countries might have their own os like windows or MacOs, like us and Russia, although normal people use windows or Mac, but like airports, hospitals, fire stations, police departments and other major government departments, we use our own os.
I might not very convenient for using, but it’s absolutely ENOUGH and BETTER BETTER.
Are you from China? China is mainly using neoKylin or openKylin domestically on computers? Is that correct?
Russia is using Astra Linux now. China should shift away from Windows as soon as possible for the reasons you mentioned.
@@randygraham926 actually, as what I know, you are right, our government departments and public officials are using Linux systems. But we the normal citizens are still using windows home edition or Mac. It’s unnecessary to ban windows or Mac on citizens and daily using, but we need to prepare for the emergency.
Regarding Russia, Crowdstrike does not sell its solutions in Russia, does not support Russian users due to the sanctions imposed by the US. Therefore, it is not surprising that there were no problems in Russia because of them.
That's a reason the world cannot relay on a western tech and competition is a must.
Crowdstrike, it could have been easily CIAstrike.
Our companies in Russia also increasingly invest in hosting services on premise in closed perimeters so it cannot be hacked, spied by anyone, full control of data, and they have no global outages
First thing Russians do after setting up Windows is to disable an automated update function (which is damn hard, since Microsoft for some reasons made this near impossible even for above average user with LOTS of redundancy), because it have a habit of installing updates in most inconvenient time when you absolutely need your computer. Russians only install updates manually when some application refuses to work without it. If it works - don't touch it.
Can people sue CrowdStrike for the travel disruptions? Can being stuck in an airport be construed as false imprisonment?
Because the Chinese government and state-owned enterprises already replaced American products with domestic cpus and operating systems 10 years ago. China has its own set of hardware and software standards that will operate without the US.
This shows the importance of decoupling 😂
