  2. Re:Microsoft... security.... on Cringely: MS To Hurt Linux Via USB Enhancements · · Score: 1
    There seems to be a lot of weight being given to the most riddled, insecure, swiss cheese OS of all time. It really seems that M$ is afraid of the 'Linux'OS coming FROM the USB devices, such as Damn Small Linux, Feather, and others.

    They do not want people to realize that the bloat that they are selling is actually sinking the boat...

    Instead of locking down their software, they propose to lock down the hardware, which is just a Swiss Army Knife away from being hacked!

    Most vulnerabilities that M$ has are not from people using USB devices but from people using NIC cards. The way that they(M$) allow most traffic to enter/exit their systems seems to indicate that there should be a remanufracture of the ethernet cards, not the USB devices.
