A Microsoft glitch led to chlorine poisoning of 15 people.
In the pool of an amusement park in the city of Bruhl in Germany, visitors were poisoned, some of them were hospitalized. As it turned out, a malfunction in the work of Microsoft Corporation was to blame for the incident.
The automatic dosing system went overboard and added too much chlorine to the water. The control system immediately produced a signal about dangerous concentrations and sent it to the workers by email.
However, due to a technical glitch in the Outlook service, this letter simply did not arrive. The water in the pool has now been completely replaced and is open to visitors again.
