thanks for moving this, wasn't sure 'Off the Wall' was the right place but didn't know if 'PPP' was the right spot either.

I guess I should stop running Windoze on my Mac. Practice safe computing my friends.

False flag operation. More fear porn to justify government control of the internet. Not saying it's not real just that it could be intentional by the peeps that rule us.

Linux users have the luxury of having no one to blame when hacked, and Apple has the policy of denying any problem exists at all. I would like to point out that the reason we got "the Fappening 2.0" in 2017 is because of celebrities continuing to believe the lies of Apple's safety.

 

There is no such thing as safe computing. The only defense is to hope to blend in with the billions, or be a hermit.

Linux Users = People who know what they are doing and take responsibility for their own actions

Apple Users = Smug hipsters who think their sh*t don't stink

 

That said when you buy a new PC with Windows (not much choice really), install VMWare or Virtualbox and then a Linux Guest

I've used windows machines for twenty years and never had a virus. You'd have to be an idiot to get infected.
