And now for something besides the Cornyvirus crap....

It’s one panic or another.

And exactly how long has windows 10 been out for?

For the short amount of time its been out it has over 1100 issues. Unix flavors and android have both been around longer than windows 10.

Tech OS ping!.....................

FWIW, Ubuntu is a flavor of Debian, so technically Linux owns 40% of the Top 5.

Windows is a closed source OS. This isn’t a surprise.

It’s still viruses, pal...

Meanwhile, Windows added a Linux kernel in 10 -

Not a well-written article. Or might just have been badly researched - GIGO.

Hoe much did Microsoft pay to get this published?

[captain_dave]

Half the time Windows itself is the virus...or seems like it.

So if a third party starts collecting your data without your consent, it’s a vulnerability. When Microsoft does it in 10, it’s some sort of “feature”. In the end, the result is the same, except in the former case, MS might actually get around to creating a patch to fix it, where with the latter, they’ll just hide or prevent any mechanism to circumvent their surveillance of you.

[LouieFisk]

On the plus side for MS, Windows doesn’t really need outside problems. It installs it’s own:
“The latest Windows 10 update is so broken, even Microsoft thinks you should uninstall it”

Ooh...a report!

The millions of set-top boxes, routers, Android phones and tabs, etc that run linux will be surprised to know this.

[McGruff]

There are no vulnerabilities in Linux, not a single one.

[familyop]

"And Debian, a flavor of Linux, was top of the table with 3,067 vulnerabilities over the last two decades."

The same tactic that the femicommies are using against the President. Whoever solves the most problems is accused of causing those problems.

An aside. Never install Norton 360. I thought I would try it. Big mistake.
I use Windows 7 Pro. It took 4 attempts to get it installed.
5 bluescreens in 8 days. 2 just today. Had not had any prior for years.
I uninstalled using Norton’s own uninstallerand restarted ok. I installed the past anti virus program I used called Webroot and restarted. It got stuck at the Welcome screen just after the log in.
The fix was running chkdsk /f /r

I think everybody who follows the vulnerability mailing lists already knew this.

Very little damage can be done to a Unix based OS without having ‘root’ access/password. This article is a joke, right?
