Windows: Literally gets backdoors injected in by the FBI and distributed to every single copy being executed in production in every system on the planet, and they're not only not removed, but INTENTIONALLY ALLOWED FOR YEARS nothing happens, everyone just continues to use Windows.
Linux: little cheeky mf commits a backdoor, gets removed before it even makes it to production it's the fucking end of the world, open source software is doomed etc etc...
@cody I imagine it's cuz they didn't know how it worked. Windows back door is managed vuln.
@Paradox Yeah managed by Microsoft lol
@cody Managed by somebody (especially a megacorp) is my point. They're scared of something they can't reliably deal with.
@Paradox My point is you can't really deal with microsoft backdoors either. It don't matter who manages it, a backdoor is a backdoor. It's just as dangerous if not more, because if it's managed by some random guy, he probably will at most destroy your computer. If it's managed by the FBI, they might destroy your life.
@cody Has nobody tried to exploit the Windows backdoor?
@cody Oh, so these are proprietary backdoors and they're hoping nobody snitches. And then Eddie did and they told him to go fuck himself in the strongest possible terms. I knew he was an expat cuz of being a whistleblower, but I never looked into what whistle it was.
