I hear you, but there's no reason to be angry.
When I first learned of the issue, my first thought was, "Hey our update policy doesn't pull the latest sensor to production servers." After a little more research I came to the same conclusion you did, aside from disconnecting from the internet there's nothing we really could have done.
There will always be armchair quarterbacks, use this as an opportunity to teach, life's too short to be upset about such things.
Take it from me, reality is a prison. If your issues are as bad as mine, escapism is the only solution and social media is the polar opposite of escapism. I'm not saying "do drugs", I'm saying "threaten to quit, and if they call your bluff, make an untraceable alteration to fuck the company over and quietly hand in your resignation" before taking a break to indulge hobbies while searching for another job.
And if you can't afford to lose your job at all for any length, you now have a morally-acceptable reason to kill everyone in your workplace because better death than slavery to a system this corrupt.
