What a horrendously stupid tweet. I find everything that follows is stupid and problematic too.
VideoLAN calling them disrespectful, when it was more than that. Someone saying it works for them on Linux, so it must be Windows (not evidence, could still be VLC). Article suggesting Defender exclusion, without mentioning the security implication. Original person doubling down, saying VLC should or has to fix the Defender issue (like they did for an AMD crash).
Insane...
