Sooo. I am sitting in an ICE train in Germany. Train is - of course - delayed.
Train manager comes on and does an announcement about the upcoming delays.
Then he mentiones that the train is very full because a lot of air passengers have been rebooked onto the train by Lufthansa due to "a hacker attack against multiple airlines".

There has been no hacker attack, the airlines are just experiencing the consequences of their actions, specifically their vendor choice (crowdstrike) and their process choices (staggered rollouts? pish pash, damn the torpedoes and full steam ahead).

But now I am hearing passengers discussing why their kids online game does not work, which is certainly related to the hacker attack...

I am starting to understand so much about the dark ages...
