Right, Josh- Well, I have the luxury of not having to deal with Windows any more- It's been over 15 years now since I bid adieu to the MS world. So my comments above were strictly with regard to how NPU might impact linux desktop security. Really, with something that powerful, I have a hard time believing the designers would be able to resist including 'phone home' by default, maybe even hiding it. Yes, I have heard enough about Win 11 to know I'm sure glad I'm not in that world. Win11 appears to be the Darth Vader OS, whereas previous editions were more like, ahhh, Atilla the Hun? (grin) Constant screenshots are surely a security nightmare... Linus, despite how much I admire him, sounds to me like he is getting a bit lax IMO. But I am only a humble end user and this sort of stuff is way beyond my level of understanding. Clutter -

Fascinating thread. Thanks, All. I'm running linux desktops exclusively, and on old hardware. It occurred to me, listening to the interesting video, that users of this AI hardware/software would probably be naive to think they could get away with using an 'NPU' strictly locally. Seems to me that the writers could not possibly resist the temptation to include 'phone home' features is said machines. (here, I mean strictly in linux environments) So from my limited perspective, it seem inevitable that these machines could/would function as a sort of spyware... Clutter -
