Perhaps most of us have forgotten Microsoft outages some months back. Perhaps we are also forgetting that one suspected angle of Boeing crash in Ahmedabad might be software failure. The more precision we attain through automated systems, the more riskier the human affairs become. All these things reduce alternatives on which one can fall back in case of failure. That has become a social order. We have become used to technology. Whether it is for good or bad, is
a different story but the sad part of the story is that we are not learning anything from repeated failures. These are the things which should alarm us but we are taking all these lightly. We in TheLawyerics checked up whether there was any update by the Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) but found nothing useful to guide us.

The civil aviation ministry too seems to have downplayed the incident as if after some disruption everything was normal. It is not. These things create heavy chaos. They call for legal measures similar to Disaster Management Act, 2005 but in India, we generally start thinking post facto. Software glitches and resulting chaos have happened many times but no one has so far taken it seriously.
