Does anyone else feel a little sympathy for CrowdStrike? They pushed out something they should not have. OK. That is bad. But a couple days on and the bulk of the difficulties seem to be from how windows handled the situation: The BSODs, the boot loops, the inability to recover from a basic fault. I feel that if this did happen in a linux environment (it could) that it would be easier to isolate and boot systems into some sort of temporary mode. Linux would communicate and offer options. The windows-specific trend of just abandoning all hope, giving up and throwing the BSOD at the user ... CrowdStrike didn't create that.
