Crowdstrike is closed source security software.
What's the difference between malware and what Crowdstrike has done to the world today?
We might as well reclassify Crowdstrike as malware and remove it from all computers to avoid this situation in the future.
- wcski 2y agoThe difference is that the intent of malware is to disrupt. Is gasoline useless just because it explodes when you light a match next to it? edit to add: OSS is not inherently more secure than closed source.

It's clear we need to take more precautions before using Crowdstrike. More testing, ability by IT departments to not push updates, ability to rollback updates.
