Guest LilBambi Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 So, in that respect, it's no different than Windows... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atiustira Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share Posted May 2, 2015 Yup just a bit over simplified. To my understanding Apple had a hard time beating the 1 GHz mark in there CPU. So they went with IBM. But the OS has been a Unix derivative for a while. Obviously the commands of the linked page like sudo. Give that hint. But do I see a pattern here with malware,and other things. That may affect peoples freedom. Nah just a bunch of coincidences. Carry on nothing to see here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebrke Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 From your link: The NSA has asked Linus Torvalds to inject covert backdoors into the free and open operating system GNU/Linux. This was revealed in this week’s hearing on mass surveillance in the European Parliament. Chalk another one up of the United States NSA trying to make information technology less secure for everyone.Firstly, can you believe the NSA is this clueless? What good's a backdoor in open source software? Secondly, I'd love to have been a fly on the wall when Linus answered them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
