Have fun injecting pop-ups and JavaScript crap into my Lynx sessions. Which is where nearly all of my HTTP browsing happens.

- anonym29 3y agoFine and well until someone injects code to exploit some 0day in lynx. Correct me if I'm wrong, but lynx doesn't even have sandboxing the way Chrome & FF do, right? Sure, it's a much smaller attack surface than those presented by traditional browsers, but if I had to hazard a guess, I'd assume it's been far less targeted, and considerably less hardened over the years. Note: this is NOT an endorsement of Chrome, FF, Webkit, Blink, Gecko, nor is it a suggestion to NOT use Lynx - just a reminder that there are no silver bullets in security.
- giantrobot 3y agoSo you use lynx so therefore MITM injection isn't a problem? I'm having trouble even imagining this is a good faith response because it is so painfully obtuse.
