CrowdStrike faces widespread lawsuits from a faulty software update that brought down Windows machines across the world in July.

Hey companies that are all pissed, you agreed to the outage when you signed the TOS and user agreements. Get used to it.
Negligence can invalidate an agreement and expose a company to lawsuits.
Many companies negotiate agreements, specifically to avoid having no recourse for this type of situation. Companies have individual agreements with crowdstrike that aren’t the boilerplate one they start out with.
My point was more about karma is a bitch, stop screwing over customers.
Wouldn’t you rather they recover their losses from Crowdstrike than raise prices on consumers?
I assume both will happen.
Prices inevitably go up due to inflation. I’m talking about a price increase in addition to that because of this incident.
Fortunately, the law in the United States disagrees with your stance. From a practical standpoint, we don’t want companies to be able to hide from the consequences of basic incompetence or willful negligence.
