In early 2000, following IT’s unprecedentedly effective response to the Y2K situation, the world botched its after-action review. Consumed by the need to have someone to blame, influencers from around the world proclaimed it was a hoax perpetrated by IT to inflate technology budgets and its perceived importance.
Happy to have a scapegoat, the world ignorantly sneered and then moved on to the next pseudo-culprit.
So now we have CrowdStrike. Consumed by the need to have someone to blame, and with Microsoft as a sitting duck perched precariously atop a dubious patch pile, influencers around the world are determined to expend their energies and (speaking of dubious) expertise, blamestorming instead of constructing a systems view of the situation.
