How many billion people do you think were affected by this?
Microsoft said 8.5 million PCs (no Macs of course).
A tiny 42KB file took down 8.5 million machines. from: Inside the 78 minutes that took down millions of Windows machines – The Verge
But I can’t seem to find any number on the number of people.
How many millions? Billions?
I’m in that number. We happened to have to check into a hotel the night. In addition to writing things down (and the credit card number!) on paper, they needed to walk us to our rooms to let us in with a master key, too). So, yes, me and mine and the rest of the wedding guests were affected.
What about you?
