    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…

      Not sure about VLCs responses, but the original post and several other comments ( including the article ) read like ragebait. I’m tired of ragebait, man.

      you are correct, everything in thatvarticle ia stupid. but his first tweet was being more if a dick than stupidity. he enjoys being a dick.

      i have a better response to him thn anyone else gave. vlc is orovided as open source , a community effort. for a oerson who not only coded ebtire game by himself but also created a programming language., he can pull down vlc and fix his problem… if its so fixable.
