Fair enough, but the claim is that "security and privacy aren't really protected", which I strongly disagree with and don't believe the author has presented anything justify such a strong claim.
- raxxorrax 6y agoI disagree that privacy is opposed to security. On the contrary. Linux is an open systems and it didn't have widespread malware problems. You could make an argument about number of users here, but then it would also invalidate the argument of providing security on Apple systems I presume. Even more open than Windows was Linux and we hadn't this malware problem. There are repositories that work without the lock-in crap other manufacturers pull.
- nodamage 6y agoLinux as a consumer-level operating system has basically zero market share, nothing about it will be widespread. If you add in consumer devices with a Linux kernel (i.e. Android devices) then yes, it has had widespread malware problems.
