- echoangle 2y agoHow is it their fault and responsibility? Isn’t falcon sensor basically running like a kernel module? Does it mean that Windows is not engineered properly when it can be crashed by this?
- wwtrv 2y agoAre you saying that they should prevent or limit the ability of their users from installing third party software? Or at the very least prevent it from running in kernel mode?
- rocqua 2y agoA more reasonable claim would be that microsoft should have a way to allow virus-scanners to run without needing to be able to crash the kernel. That isn't an easy thing to do, but it should be possible.

- rocqua 2y agoEbpf can, I believe, not crash the Kernel
