Slopfarms Slopping Away at "Linux" and Spreading Microsoft Misinformation

Fakes, deepfakes, and fake news

We've repeatedly written about how Microsoft attacks BSD and GNU/Linux users from the moment a machine is powered on. There will soon be an expiry [ 1, 2]. Even Microsoft employees admit it's a problem waiting to happen. Some Microsofters speak of this like a joke. It seems to amuse them like their SLAPPs

Slopfarms, however, produce this nonsense:

Linux Secure Boot Safe Despite Upcoming Microsoft UEFI Key Expiry

"Safe"?

What does that mean?

A machine refusing to boot GNU/Linux makes it "Safe"?

Another slopfarm this week:

Slop or fake: Kubuntu Focus launches 18-inch Zr GEN 1 mobile Linux workstation with NVIDIA RTX 5090 GPU

Spam plus slop combined. Also this one:

Slop or fake: Linux Foundation forces ‘woke’ inclusive language rules on developers

We wrote about this earlier, as it has been getting more ridiculous lately.

That's not about ‘woke’ or whatever, it's about trolling the community and dividing it. Slopfarms don't comprehend this as they lack actual comprehension, they're just parrots. In this case, the Serial Slopper is parroting Microsoft Lunduke.
