And keep in mind, the falcon sensor exists for Linux. All those big companies largely use it.
Essentially we just got lucky that their buggy patch only affected the windows version of the sensor in a showstopping way. Could have been all major OS.

The issuw didn't affect Linux and macOS systems with Crowdstrike Falcon installed, though, only Windows systems.
On Windows, booting into Safe Mode and removing C:\Windows\System32\Drivers het bestand C-00000291*.sys temporarily solves the BSOD issue, as well.

I don't think the Linux culture is very similar to the windows culture. At least for me personally, I wouldn't use crowdstrike and let them install whatever they want into my environment.
Maybe it's just me.
