What makes you think websites can't give you malware for your Chromebook?
That's like the number one way to get it.
- andrewmutz 4y agoWhat are you referring to? Chrome extensions?
- fartcannon 4y agoI'm referring to the fact that it's connected to the internet.
- e63f67dd-065b 4y agoThe same way all browsers prevent malware? Sandboxing and regular patches to patch holes in the sandbox? The Chrome team is very responsive to vulnerabilities in my experience, they roll out security patches extremely quickly and chrome autoupdates you to the latest version soon after.
- fartcannon 4y agoYes, the same way. That's literally the point I'm making. OPs original comment, "By default, there is only web browsers and no Linux. Which is nice because by default there can be no malware and it's a good OS for non technical users." As if ChromeOS isn't going to get malware the same way all OSes do.
