I was a Linux user back in the day and I'm saddened there's so many exploits for it now and it's getting hacked so much. Sure, we had rkhunter and chkrootkit and clamav and snort etc, and I was just a hobbyist messing around but getting hacked in Linux? It didn't happen often. And we made fun of Windows for being a "virus magnet." 🤣 but now I will just to just install Linux in virtual box in my Windows 11 machine, and I mainly use Android on my Pixel 6. Great videos, keep it up. And I'm so glad I never used 23 and me. I read in genetic warfare, that could make you a target. Supposedly the Chinese were working on such a thing I think and it might be a stretch but I know enough about my heritage. I don't need to know THAT much. Besides, there's always genealogy.
