Docker is a technology that downloads random unsigned tarballs from the Internet and runs them as root. Also it turns off your system firewall in the process, to make all this more "convenient".
Really we have much more low-hanging fruit to pick.
- KronisLV 2y agoThey’re working on signing: https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/trust/ https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/trust/ They have a rootless mode: https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/rootless/ https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/rootless/ Firewall situation is mixed: https://docs.docker.com/engine/network/packet-filtering-firewalls/#integration-with-firewalld https://docs.docker.com/engine/network/packet-filtering-fire... It’s a bummer that those aren’t the defaults, but it would directly make things less convenient and therefore make people less likely to use it (same reason why installing various software is still offered as a Bash script that you curl and pipe to your terminal, e.g. Ollama; at least it’s not offered as the only way usually), what a world.
