Ok, now that I picked myself up off the floor from laughing so hard at just how insecure linux is (which I knew already) and how the the linux fanboys tried to convince me that it was "the safest OS on the planet" I couldn't help but laugh at them. In your face! HAH!
This is yet another security hole in linux and you guys wonder why I would never ever run it. Its always one security issue after the other with linux. Then its compile compile compile every day just to keep it secured. I wonder if they will ever fix that pesky telnet open port issue while they are talking about security.
I am so glad I don't run it except to test it out and that is all of a few minutes before I realize its all the same crap underneath with no improvements. This article is further proof that linux is not ready for the main stream or to be used by anyone. Not until Linus takes himself seriously and starts coding an OS what is worth a damn.
