It’s pretty staggering in retrospect that all these big companies with all this critical infrastructure just lets some third party yahoos push (self-evidentally) untested code directly to their devices without so much as testing the impact themselves first.
There’s stories over on Hacker News about Crowdstrike being responsible for the same thing in March of this year of except that time was Debian servers affected, only brought down a handful of obscure services, so didn’t it get any press.

luckily for crowdstrike, with all the outages, its harder to short their stock … 9d chess.

Let’s also not forget how much work Microsoft has done with Linux over the past decade. If i’m not mistaken they’re in the top 5 commiters to the Linux kernel. I may be recalling the article wrong but under Balmer’s leadership, Microsoft was trying to kill Linux. Under Nadella though, they shifted to adoption and cooperation.
A decision that has been good for everyone fwiw.
