In a before-first-unlock state they absolutely are bruteforcing, since the filesystem is encrypted. The exploits are for bypassing the retry limit in that case.

And the manufacturers don’t have your encryption keys. They’re unique.

Use a long password and you’ll be immune from their before first unlock brute force.

Passcodes are trivial to break.

Another one for the graveyard!

Should have the right to know what happening to their children. Schools shouldn’t be hiding anything from the parents.

I hate to break it to you, but if a child tells the school before they tell their own damn parents, there’s a reason for that.

Switzerland isn’t in the EU

You’re not gonna get anything requiring Ring 0 access (like Vanguard) running on Linux anytime soon.

Good. Kernel mode anticheat is fucking malware. Anticheat for a game should never have the same power over the system as a driver, which needs those privileges to communicate with hardware.

If there was malware in Matrix I’m sure the many people who have looked at the code would have found it by now and we’d hear all about it. It’s also worth noting that most Matrix servers you can choose are not in Israel.

And Signal is not a good alternative, as just like Microsoft here, they can ban you if they don’t like where you’re sending messages. Not that they will, but they have that power.

Free/open source software is an international development effort. Whether some developers are Israeli is irrelevant because the code is public and has developers worldwide.

And they are famous for spyware, yes, but that’s from specific state-sanctioned companies. Like NSO group.

It was a fucking toddler trapped in the car you moron.

It couldn’t be opened manually from the outside.

Supposedly. Supposedly they also weren’t going to ignore the standard and do their own thing but I guess this disproves that.

Debian :)

Its a fucking typo for comedic effect🤦‍♂️

You’re looking far too deep into a joke about GNOME developers removing features.

This is the best way I’ve heard it said.

Busybox is very much widely used though?

And how is it false that the GPL makes software remain free? Read the free software definition, it’s about the freedom of users, not the freedom of people who aren’t users (that doesn’t really make sense). Free software isn’t “source code available to general public even if they aren’t users”.

I don’t buy it. USBC can deliver quite a lot of power

Doubled down on being what?

Are you trying to argue that anything written here is false? Can you prove it?

How does any virus run itself? Are you seriously this dense?

Hint: there are many attack vectors, including no-click drive-by downloads, programs from Softonic, etc.

EDIT: Does this person seriously believe that because Microsoft made it, it must be secure, despite that literally having just been proven wrong? And that pointing that out means I need to be smarter than everyone at MS? That explains the delusional argument they’re going with.

User python script. Full control of computer not required.

??? It saves everything it sees that’s the point ???

Linus wrote a kernel, and GNU wrote the majority of the userspace at the time.

How is that coat-tails-ing? Both projects had a tremendous amount of effort poured into them. And let’s not forget GCC was the only free compiler for 20 years.

If people were asking for it to be called “GNU” only, then it’d be unfair. But they aren’t.
