Crowdstrike caused a Microsoft outage. Most people don't differentiate.

At the same time there was a Microsoft Azure outage, but it was minor compared to Croudstrike
Crowdstrike caused a Crowdstrike outage for systems running Crowdstrike. The vast majority of Microsoft products and services were not affected.
Except for a large part of Azure :)
The failures in the Central US region in Azure were entirely unrelated to Crowdstrike. It was the day before the Crowdstrike update rolled out.
No they haven't. It's Crowdstrike's bug but it's Microsoft's problem that they accepted a change in their kernel without testing.
