Doesn’t CrowdStrike have more important things to do right now than try to take down a parody site?
That’s what IT consultant David Senk wondered when CrowdStrike sent a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown notice targeting his parody site ClownStrike.
Senk created ClownStrike in the aftermath of the largest IT outage the world has ever seen—which CrowdStrike blamed on a buggy security update that shut down systems and incited prolonged chaos in airports, hospitals, and businesses worldwide…
Sounds like they could use some more sites linking to them to improve SEO. https://clownstrike.lol/
The Streisand effect is an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead increases public awareness of the information.

Lmao what a legend. How would DMCA even apply in this case though? Parodies are free speech
I support the right of clowns to strike for whatever reason
They’ve gotta do something in the face of ballooning expenses…
