Microsoft said themselves this was a network configuration error that they have rolled back

For a few hours outage, what do you think it should be?

Why Is The System That Easily Hacked? MICROSOFT NEEDS TO EXPLAIN!!

It wasn't hacked, German officials retracted their statement because Microsoft's systems were taken down by a bad configuration change. An IT guy fucked up basically lol

The DDoS attacks they are actually investigating against other services are also not "hacked" despite how the media phrases it - a DDoS attack is not hacking anything, it's more like creating a traffic jam and a really long lineup. It's basically just overloading the server until nobody can use it, not accessing any data or modifying anything or breaking any security.
