Why Do I ONLY Use Linux? THIS Is Why…

If you use Linux, it’s very nearly impossible to have your computer infected by simply opening an email. Windows? Not so much.

How do you tell whether e-mails contain links without opening them? I’ve not seen an e-mail program that does THAT!

Under Linux, what program does *not* do that?
Links and attachments within an email have to be opened seperately.

I would ordinarly peruse all of the “Received” headers before doing that.

I suspect most hackers are employed by the NSA, CIA, The Big Banks, and the Credit Bureaus. The others are the CCP and Russians. In the old days I had a serious of static IP addresses. My firewall would block 99% the intrusion attacks from IPs in China. The other 1% were from within the US. I think the US based entities refresh the profile on each of by staging a hacking attack on some database at a credit card, credit bureau, retailer, or employment/retirement system. Then we are told to run to a credit monitoring companies or put a freeze on our credit. In order to do that we update their records on us for them.

Just like when you look up a friend on the internet. They phish the information you enter by asking you a series of questions that build a profile of the person. Combine this with information they already have on your friend and voila the file gets updated.

Months back a data collection company was hacked and under law they are required to notify each person affected. They had information on billions of people. Of course they never notified anybody because the postage alone would bankrupt them. I assume they are an arm of the government(s) too. Using Linux doesn’t protect you when you update the information for the hackers yourself.

What do you think is going to happen when your money goes digital and only accessible online using your smartphone? Genius!! Crooked bastards.
