It’s good to see that M$FT is tackling the important problems:
The sight of a Blue Screen of Death will also be a thing of the past, too. Microsoft is now officially redesigning its BSOD so that it’s black and not blue.
Hello darkness my old friend
If it prevents us having another crappy week thanks to the like of Crowdstrike, good.

do anticheat count as antivirus?
No. But, from the article:
Microsoft has been speaking with game developers about how to reduce the amount of kernel usage
The CrowdStrike fiasco was finally enough for Microsoft to look at forcing drivers out of the kernel. This is absolutely a good thing and will hopefully lead to a more stable Windows.
First question which popped into my mind was, “Will they force Defender out as well?”
Or, is Microsoft about to abuse it’s position to stifle competition? Again.Tbh out of the big corpos MS has been one of the least anti-competitive in the past 10-15 years. They like to push their own services with ads within their own services yes but that’s not really anti competitive in the truest sense, every company on earth does that.
The biggest one I can think of recently is them having lower rates for Windows Server on Azure vs other clouds. Compare that with companies like Apple, Google who actively attempt to put down other services.
IMO Nadella has been pretty decent in handling that part of MS. Though I don’t really have an answer to your Defender question lol.
I couldn’t care less about this. Get anti cheat ba out of the kernel.
