Corporate, Microsoft-Connected Media Would Say Anything to Distract From Windows Holes, Exploits, and a High Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)

Summary: The media keeps obsessing over long-patched bugs in Linux and even blames "Linux" for bad passwords; is the media simply trying to distract from the primary culprit, which has nothing to do with Linux?

THE use of Microsoft software, which has back doors in it, guarantees failure and high cost. At this point, the only way to 'defend' Windows, for instance, is to simply distract from its problems (or to make alternatives to it seem equally risky).



"The real problem is Windows, not some local privilege escalation bug that had been patched (or patches made available) before the public was even informed about it."In the latest batch of Daily Links we included these two links [1, 2] that are only hours old. So-called 'journalists' want us to believe bad passwords are somehow the fault of Linux (they don't even understand what Linux actually is (Snap is not Linux)). The real problem is Windows, not some local privilege escalation bug that had been patched (or patches made available) before the public was even informed about it.
