Sure glad that my company doesn't run Windows..

Mine does, but I’m off today and couldn’t be arsed to check how they’re doing. And I’m not on the IT department either. So far it’s been nice watching the world burn.

This meme finally blames the right product and the comments still say Windows 🤣

Millions of Windows users who have never heard of crowdstrike are just fine.

CrowdStrike is another shitty parasite who's business model can only survive because of the Windows ecosystem.

Aww who's a cute little edgelord? You are!

There's nothing controversial about it. Security as a product is an upside down approach to security, and it only really exists on windows.

Bahaha sure buddy. "Really" gives you enough room to dismiss all Linux security tools. How convenient .

I'm fine dismissing things in my field that I've never seen used.

That's a wonderful anecdotal observation

I run a windows PC at work, which has this Crowd Strike tool on it but didn't BSOD today. Lucky me?

If it was turned off, it didn't get the bad update.

Consider that crowd struck!

If anything, this brings more light on supply chains being the more popular way for attacks. XZ, of course being THE recent example.

Just US and the vassals actually.

Will they face a significant fine?

Probably not.

Will they lose customers?

Also probably not.

Will anybody learn anything from this?

Lol...
