it's an interesting take
the argument, which MS didn't make themselves directly, is essentially saying they shouldn't let anyone other than microsoft make mistakes (and there has been a few over the years including Win updates that had to be rolled back)
Firms chose to install the falcon sensor software, they could have chosen MS products only. Caveat emptor. If you put McAfee on your PC don't complain when it's riddled with spyware. The eu never mandated anyone install falcon sensor. I don't think a firm releasing a bad update is a reason to wind back anti-monopoly laws on the Windows OS, it's a reason not to give them your business

I take your point, kernel errors tend to pretty show-stopping
but just three days ago they announced half of all australians medical data and IDs have been leaked to the darkweb, because some db server of some shitty little med cyber firm wasnt secure, so there's plenty of other things that can go wrong. We should all go back to paper
