Wall Street Journal: Microsoft says it cannot wall off its OS due to a 2009 deal with the EC to give security software makers the same level of access to Windows that Microsoft gets — Global outage on Windows machines caused by CrowdStrike highlights Microsoft’s security challenges
The Microsoft PR and Legal department are on this, trying to spin them as the victims.
Fuck Microsoft, this is their fault. Theur monopoly and anti competitive pragroce has made it worse. They need more intervention to force open their system and allow other vendors to be able to offer viable alternatives.
We wouldn’t have had such chaos is we didn’t have so many companies stuck depending on a duopoly of Microsoft and Crowdstrike.
