> and you have selected poorly. Note that I write "experimenting with". I'm fairly aware that my browser is the main vulnerability, thank you, which is why I run different (mainstream) browsers for different sites already and actually want even more lock down for certain use cases than what IT currently privides. I'll also add that in the last 20 years I've had one infection on a machine that I alone used (a drive by exploit in a banner ad on a developer blog I read) so a combination of carefulness/paranoia certainly helps ;-) And no, I'm not suggesting anyone should uncritically download a random browser and start exploring the dark corners of the web. Also: I agree, the robot thing was harmless, but that said: do you remember Superfish? The little thing that Lenovo added to their laptops? Which turned out to be a giant easily exploitable hole? As for the robot extension: - when I noticed it in between my own extensions it scared me quite badly until I managed to look it up - companies that does such things aren't trustworthy. The robot thing was harmless. Superfish wasn't. Do you trust marketing executives to know the difference?
