It appeared that the Sphere — the ostentatious new addition to the Las Vegas skyline, with 580,000 square feet of programmable LEDs on its exterior — had succumbed to the blue screen of death.

Postal Service confirmed it took action to “remediate” the data sharing following a TechCrunch investigation.
