Mention of Azure issues

Why no mention of the issues at Azure that coincided with CrowdStrike's failure? I remember it being in the article. I think it should be at least briefly mentioned, since many people thought it was related to the event at the time. 2A04:4A43:424F:DC33:3D59:212C:8E0A:5594 (talk) 02:47, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

My mistake. I see it does get a brief mention. Never mind. 2A04:4A43:424F:DC33:3D59:212C:8E0A:5594 (talk) 02:49, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

Questionable quotation (with YouTube video source)

The following references only a YouTube video and doesn't state what "Fireship" is or why the speaker is relevant or an authority. Does it really belong?

Jeff Delaney of Fireship commented that "Giving one company kernel access to the computers of most Fortune 500 companies might actually be a bad idea." 2A04:4A43:424F:DC33:3D59:212C:8E0A:5594 (talk) 02:56, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

I've now removed it. The video is informative and engaging but a minor YouTuber is not a reliable source, and his personal opinion shouldn't merit inclusion alongside industry professionals and security experts. GhostOfNoMeme 05:13, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
