[edit]luxanta story
else
[edit]The Luxanta incident refers to a large number of injuries and fatalities which occurred in June 2032,[1] when auto manufacturer Luxanta's then-ongoing Chapter 11 bankruptcy led to staff at several authentication datacenters being laid off.[2][3] Bankruptcy proceedings had permitted for the datacenters to be funded for an additional 14 days under a standard deactivation grace period,[2] intended to allow Luxanta owners time to return from trips and purchase new cars; however, authentication and navigation servers were not designed to operate without human supervision.[1][3][4]
Within several hours of the datacenters' last employees leaving the building, log overflows and crashes to services that required manual restarting caused several key servers to stop functioning entirely.[1][5] Entry-level models like the Aurora[6] and Cadence[6] had no user interface permitting human control, with dashboards consisting entirely of touchscreens on which owners could access the UberLuxanta+ app.[1][2][7] When the payment authentication servers stopped responding to queries, these models began to behave erratically; it is estimated that some 10,000 deaths were attributable to this phenomenon.[1][4][5][6]
Consequences

At the time of its bankruptcy, Luxanta was one of the largest automotive manufacturers in North America;[7] it had fleet supply contracts with many municipal governments, public utilities and other large companies.[8] As a result, the sudden deactivation of all Luxanta heavy truck models on June 18 (despite one week of advance notice) has been identified as a root cause of several disasters,[1][8] including a national state of emergency declared in the countries of Denmark, Latvia, South Africa, Nigeria, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States.[6][7]

(January 2041) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) The cultural, political, and economic impact of the Luxanta incident was both immediate and long-ranging.[3][8][12] It has been cited by political historians as a major turning point in the mid-2030s rise to prominence of several major parties and coalitions across the world, many of which were "previously regarded as fringe at best".[2][7]
In History of the Post-Re-Modern World, professor Herbert Glockenspiel said: "It is scarcely possible to imagine a world in which these movements could have even come to mainstream prominence, let alone produced a legacy as memorable as the Snowden administration, if not for the Luxanta incident."[13]
