The airlines are out a TON of money and Mayor Pete is making sure they pay.

But that's just the tip of the iceberg. This shitshow affected almost all industries to an extent.

After all the lawsuits and business interruption claims are paid, who actually covers all the damages from this?

Will CloudStrike get sued out of business? Is Microsoft on the hook?

I’m curious how much of this will get covered by insurance. As for wing sued out of business, I suppose it’s possible, but would be a shame. CloudStrike is actually an excellent product, but the dev/release teams sure as hell effed this one up in a huge way.
