CrowdStrike effectively bricked windows, Mac and Linux today.

Windows machines won’t boot, and Mac and Linux work is abandoned because all their users are on twitter making memes.

Incredible work.

    no longer functional due to corrupted firmware, a hardware problem, or other damage.

    Other damage being an invalid driver

      I wouldn’t consider something to be bricked if it can be fixed by simply restoring a backup or reinstalling the OS.
