Original Note:
The NATS outage was caused by accidental data corruption and the required maintenance to fix this and maintain the safety of passengers in the air. Such events could happen irrespective of ownership model. NATS is 49% owned by the UK government and 5% by employees. https://techmonitor.ai/technology/networks/air-traffic-control-uk-flight-delays-cyberattack https://www.nats.aero/about-us/company/#:~:text=Our%20ownership&text=NATS%20is%20a%20public%20private,%25%20(the%20golden%20share).
