The Terms and Conditions §8.6 says: https://www.crowdstrike.com/terms-conditions/

I've been writing a paper with the title "Anything Goes? – How Much Longer Can Internet and Software Products Evade Liability?"

It covers, among other these, these kinds of "we ain't responsible for nuttin'" kinds of disclaimers.

Sun used to have a warning on their workstations that they should not be used in conjunction with nuclear reactors (as does the Crowdstrike disclaimer you quoted) - yet they were routinely used in that way.

The point of my paper is that just as the legal system eroded these kinds of disclaimers for consumer products, particularly those capable of producing human harm, such a change is long overdue for products controlled by software.

Here in the US this kind of change has been very slow (beginning in the 1950s), partially at state levels and partially at the Federal level,  As in many things it often requires a human catastrophe to trigger even a small change (and there is often intense resistance to those changes, just witness how here in the US makers of firearms have obtained a very unique statutory immunity.)
