> nu /g/ hates Linux

Shill bait thread.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

It's sad, really. Anyone who shows even the slightest bit of interest in alternative operating systems, privacy, or security are immediately dismissed as a paedophile, a terrorist, or a shill.

"Nothing to hide, nothing to fear" is a retarded fallacy. See: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1827982

As long as you don't shit on other people for not using it, that's fine. Same goes for Linux users. And Mac users. And so on.

Everything is botnet already. Tech companies have colluded into an oligarchy to make botnet and spying the status quo. 20 years ago nobody would have installed software that constantly informed its manufacturer what you did at all times, but now it's almost exclusively the case. Amazing how much PR and advertising can warp the collective psyche.

No. You're very close but technically wrong. It's the wealthy of the world. The entire world is run by the capitalist oligarchy. I'm not going to say it's the Jews, because that's not really true, but it isn't NOT the Jews.
