Elon Musk Takes Several Shots at Crowdstrike After Global Outage — Including Taking Aim at Company’s DEI Policy
Billionaire X owner Elon Musk took several shots at CrowdStrike after a software update gone wrong caused what is believed to the biggest IT outage ever — including one that took aim at the company’s diversity, equity and inclusion policy.
A fix for the glitch caused by cybsersecurity provider CrowdStrike’s falty update was deployed and most services at hospitals, banks and other businesses that use Microsoft products were restored, though airlines worldwide continued to struggle to recover Saturday.
Not very “bright” right now, is it?

Musk apparently dug through old CrowdStrike posts on X after the crash, and came up with one from March 2022, announcing its participation in a panel discussion on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
Musk also let everyone on X know that “we just deleted CrowdStrike from all our systems, so no rollouts at all.”
