@ainmosni the way tooany permissions problem you mentioned - is a Microsoft problem

It's the way Windows designed it to work, to promote Defender and make it unnecessary more difficult for commercial products, and mostly impossible for open source - to tackle the functionality of Defender on Windows

Perspective of shared responsibility, of course - just to be clear, the permissions problem is not really a choice of CrowdStrike

Note that I'm saying this as a big fan of linux with decades of experience.

Run anything on linux as root, and it has too many permissions. This is not a windows problem.

Sure, there's SELinux, but people find that "too difficult", so many turn it off.

I'm all for smack talking windows, but in this case, the problem is CrowdStrike.

@ainmosni @stoff Yes, but people making Linux decisions generally have a higher degree of technical knowledge than people making Windows decisions. Many more Windows decisions are made by clueless managers. That happens with Linux as well, but to a lesser degree.
