Mac doesn't allow 3rd part kernel drivers and on Linux they use ebpf. Is their product useless there?

Probably? For instance I doubt an EDR product can detect malware being executed on iOS/Android, because all the apps there are heavily sandboxed and provide no mechanism to do invasive monitoring of everything's that's being run.

According to wikipedia it's been ported to windows and on linux you can still load kernel modules which are crashable.

On Linux, they apparently had done the same thing and caused a bunch of Linux systems to crash[1].
