Google's defenstration of K Renee, Mark and Cassio may have been accidental, but Google's *capacity* to defenstrate *all of us*, and the enormous cost we all bear if Google does so, has been carefully engineered into the system. Same goes for Apple, Microsoft, Adobe and anyone else who traps us in their silos.

The lesson of the Crowdstrike catastrophe isn't merely that our IT systems are brittle and riddled with single points of failure: it's that these failure-points can be tripped *deliberately*, and that doing so could be in a company's best interests, no matter how devastating it would be to you or me.
