NSA KERNEL EXPLOITS OUT IN THE WILD: LINUX USERS ON SUICIDE WATCH

Well, they can be fixed now that they're known

RIP ANDROID

Has this affected anyone else' stock of zero days? I lost a few but not most to this. Should have cashed those in already. ;_;

>>59891734

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Switch off your computer

Wew, should have bought a Mac

>>59891720
This is the biggest disadvantage of open-source software. Anybody can find exploits unlike Windows and OSX where the code is not disclosed.

Thank GNU I use a kernel from 1995

FIFY. Security through obscurity != secure. You won't ever hear of most exploits targeted at proprietary software. Not to mention exploits are bundled as features due to inherent nature of proprietary software.

Meh, we all knew that Linux was not safe.

Me, too! Let's play together, Onii-chan.

Is this why arch pushed out 2 kernel versions in the same week?

>>59891884
Tell yourself that every time there's a Linux vulnerability more serious than the last one.

Microsoft and Apple hire top engineers to do their work. They do a background check on them and hire some of the smartest Indians and Chinese in the world to develop their software. Linux on the other hand, is written by hobbyists who care about themselves rather than you. Go figure.

Almost had me until this.

>>59891810
The NSA probably has access to all sorts of closed-source code, they already break the law, there is nothing stopping them from just stealing the Windows and OSX source to find exploits, in fact it would be the smart thing to do.

>>59891720
you can't have a usable OS without holes. especially when your opponent has an unlimited budget. just assume you're compromised.

Linux has no advantage over windows. If I'm gonna be insecure anyway, I might as well enjoy the best software available on windows.

>>59892064
With Linux, the NSA spies on you
With Wankbloz both the NSA and Microshaft spy on you

>>59892064
>best software
>proprietary
Pick one.

>>59892055
Even China have seen the source, if they can trust them.

My "security" is only to keep the plebs and skiddies out

But it's not Anon's fault that they don't understand computers well enough to even imagine what they are missing out on by sticking with Winblows.

>>59892204
That, and NSA spooks have assassins for hire. It's not ever really about profit. It's about power.

>>59891720
macOS doesn't have this problem :-)

>>59892204
Then why don't you do it, faggot?

Bottom line is, Linux has been hacked time and again. Windows and Apple become stronger and stronger.

When is the Windows patch coming out?

>>59892279
You seem to forget how w**dows and mapple are being hacked even more time and time again
