Of course the lawyers would see to that, but the lawyers don’t sell the product, that would have been catastrophic for revenue and market penetration.
What made them think that installing corporate antivirus software on their critical computer infrastructure was a good idea? They need to gather their sysadmins and go back to the drawing board and redesign their business computer infrastructure.
Seems like it doesn't really matter how outdated Delta's system are.
If ClownStrike had been operating reasonably - which they clearly hadn't been - then Delta's system would have been fine.
I think CrowdStrike was pretty clear in it's terms of service that you shouldn't use its software on anything that needed to be reliable.
Had Delta used the software as proscribed then they would've been fine.

Delta is a very large company. Surely they're capable of procuring or developing software/systems with an appropriate warranty.
Like, a plumber can just wrap pipes with duct tape so they stay together but they actually use solder or another joining method that has a warranty.
Interesting point. If that's truly the way it was also being marketed and sold, then yeah that could be an "out" for them.
No idea if that's really how things were pitched though. I guess we'll all get to find out. ;)
