Omg.. I hate Microsoft and windows as much as the next guy but for the last time this isn't a windows problem ffs. Read any of the thousands of articles published on the matter and you'll find that this theoretically could just as easily happen to Linux machines if they were managed by Crowdstrike - which is the problem.
This never ending Linux elitism on Lemmy is making me tired, boss
I don’t know if I could have made it more obvious that what I said was a joke. But also, it was a Windows problem in that it only affected Windows machines, and that was the premise of my joke (which is why I phrased it that way).
