Surprising to see after the CrowdStrike debacle.

I heard somewhere that Microsoft was blocking access to the kernel for third party developers like CrowdStrike and EA because of what CrowdStrike did. Have they reversed course?

They wanted to many years ago but the EU actually stopped them, out of fear Microsoft would have the monopoly on anti virus software or something.
