Guess all the enterprise customers want this on their AI computers

For anyone who has been missing Microsoft’s tender, loving embrace since switching to Linux. Copilot for Linux is in development, I presume.

Probably already done… Copilot for Linux developed the defender for Linux as a test. They say it even sometimes work!
24 daysIt is, but it’s been branded Linux Subsystem For Copilot 365 Enterprise Service Pack 2.

This is like poking holes in the condom before visiting the nearest $20 brothel…
It’s perfect for them. They don’t have to do the work of maintaining an OS (Which they suck at) and get to continue monitoring the entire computer using their malwa- I mean security suite. :)

It’s to meet compliance regulations for orgs leveraging linux with E5/E7 licenses already. I doubt they even publish a version your average user can license, and it’s probably just an attempt to further entrench orgs into E5/E7, perpetual money drip into the Microslop money tank.

Ok but… where would the nipples be on a truck? Some diagrams would be helpful

Well this is bullshit. I guess I will end up with this on my work laptop because almost everything is Microsoft in that environment. I can only hope it stays the hell out of the way.

Yes. Unfortunately I’m about the only one. My project runs on Linux and our customers environment is completely Linux as well. Most of the developers on the team just use WSL tho.

I’m surprised the requirements isn’t “To use Microsoft defender you need TPM version 2.0 or newer”

I wouldn’t be surprised if this is just the beginning. Microsoft is making its tools Linux-compatible and is quietly, turning Windows into a desktop environment for the Linux kernel. They probably don’t even need to tell their users about it. Surprise, WSL is everywhere now!

I had never thought about this, but my (hopefully not) naive brain loves this if it helps to move the masses to Linux.

And with the masses comes enshitificafion.
The money goes to Linux, then all the proprietary trash makes its way to Linux, along with the money.
That will choke out the FOSS tools that we’ve long enjoyed.
And we’re right back to square one.
Let the masses have their trash, lest they ruin yet another good thing for us.

Well, even though Microsoft Defender was one of the better products they had, making all the anti-virus-software obsolete, I would still not dream of installing it on my linux, where I have a totally different security model by default, only for MS to gather data for free.

one of the better products they had
and it wasn’t even grown in-house. it was an acquisition.

Microsoft is like a plague.
They spot something with potential and immediately pounce on it. That’s exactly how it went with GitHub too. And now they’re trying to insert themselves into Linux. Probably just to harvest data. Complete bullshit. I would never use that. - 24 days
I thought this was already available actually

A version of this has been available for Linux servers for a while.
