Microsoft has a message on the FAA ground stop that delayed 10,000+ flights in the US

Microsoft has denied any link between its global Microsoft 365 outage and the FAA ground stop that halted every departing US flight, leaving 10,000+ flights delayed and 6,600 cancelled. We have no indication that the FAA's nationwide ground stop is related to any Microsoft services, the company said. US officials blamed overloaded routers on an ageing air traffic control network, ruling out a cyberattack and the FAA's SMART AI tool.
