I would honestly think freezing airports, hospitals and other services for days would cause a lot of legal trouble.

At least that's what would happen if an experienced hacker did the same thing.

These kinds of discussions are between corporations who have defined SLA's that specify things like reliability, uptime, etc. It's likely this outage breached this agreement so the lawyers of the companies are discussing internally and behind closed doors. This kind of thing doesn't get reported on in general.
