As of thirty-ish minutes ago ALL commercial air traffic in the US is grounded until further notice.

Anyone got any idea what’s going on? There are very free details about the situation I can find online right now.

IMO theyre keeping it under wraps for one of these reasons:

it was an attack and they dont want panic

it was yet another huge failure of “ai” bullshit and they can’t upset shareholders any longer so need to keep secret

it was floppies
