@Dietrich T. Schmitz, Your Linux Advocate
Funny, if I only ran software that Microsoft certified as safe I would probably not get infected either. I fail to see how that makes Linux different or safer.
It happened to Mozilla, it will likely happen sooner or later to anyone hosting repositories if it's worthwhile for someone to try to make it happen. At least I know I need to be careful. If you want to advocate Linux teach safe computing across all platforms rather than act as if a switch in OS will fix all your problems forever. It won't. Ubuntu has no idea what they are up against if they think their current usage base is anything like what it will be if they ever really catch on.
