Yea. It‘s affected, too.

I sync using jottacloud (given that I use the database on my smartphone in a read only fashion)

There is a CLI for linux.

See, I run a stripped Windows for playing games that don’t run under linux. I update it regularly and nothing intrusive was re-added by updates. The other systems I use are linux and macOS, with each OS having its purpose.

In acknowledge that Linux is not intrusive and that you have to have PiHoles and other DNS sinkholes for a basic protection, which is hard for regular people. But in the end you have to look at peoples needs and if somebody insists he needs Windows, and you are knowledgeable in IT stuff, make it as secure and clutter free as possible.

There are some good tools to create stripped ISOs and to adjust running installations.

Feel you. If you are tech savvy you can debloat Windows for them and get rid of recall and the online accounts.

Perfect. I thought about some kernel level shenanigans which could be out of influence for third party vendors.

Is this verified, or does it still depend on how the mechanism is implemented?

duply

Maybe this old post gives a direction: https://feddit.uk/post/34769063

I guess the problem is not “the truth” but a claim without sources combined with a short communication style for a really complex matter.

Even the link you posted just reports of one malware instead of the current state or perception of the problem. Like a general threat assessment instead of one incident.

Thank you!

I add this overview article https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/ethical-hacking/what-is-linux-malware/

This is dangerously unspecific.

I just don’t get the relevance of this article for my buyer’s decision making.

It’s not like I’m going to buy my personal Future Combat Air System elsewhere. Neither will I boycott D’Assault and buy my 4.5th fighter jets at SAAB’s outlet.

I can second this impression on a personal level and for two small business.

I am more into modern interpretations like the PELTONEN M07 Ranger SissiPuukko or the mora garberg.

But it looks like you know what you are looking for. Also, it doesn’t look too expensive for an EDC.

If you asked in bushcraft, I would in turn ask: what do you want to use the knife for?

The blade shape does not look like a classic bushcraft form (normal straight, drop point) and not very tailored towards e.g. batoning. It looks great for carving though. In regard to steel (carbon steel 1066): this is pure preference, and a good topic to really break a fight off over.

I crossposted your question in another community. They mostly came up with the same brands (tuxedo, sllimbook,…) and also with some positive experiences.

Additionally somebody named Wortmann - a German company.

That sounds constant 😉

Rethink/Adguard/pihole all interfere with the DNS lookup. Depending on the quality of your blocklist, the servers they try to send the data too will simply not be reachable.

Good intentions, wrong format, years too late.
