Hey fellow #Linux users, despite the #CrowdStrike problem only affecting #Windows, this is not a windows problem.
This is an "automatic update that got forced onto everyone with insufficient testing while also having way too many permissions" problem.
If you think big corps wouldn't run something similar on Linux, I have a an NFT of a bridge to sell you.
I've already collected one anecdotal response.
All of the Linux people being smug don't know that #CrowdStrike's Falcon Sensor has a Linux version, that integrates into the kernel, and has "channel files" too. They have escaped through accident, not by dint of any inherent superiority. In another universe where Linux systems were instead deployed in the many businesses/public services/governments with CloudStrike as the common anti-malware choice, today would have been Linux panic day. https://crowdstrike.com/press-releases/crowdstrike-falcon-expands-linux-protection-with-enhanced-prevention-capabilities/ #NeverWindows11 #MO821132
