Re: Botnets exploit Linux owners' ignorance
After Flaming retort, I have another rebuttal. Another piece of scaremongering, with overhyped drama and sensationalism, wrapped in tech lingo to make the crowds shudder with fear and reverence. While the general rule says: don't feed the trolls, as in I'm merely bringing attention to an article that does not merit any, I think it's important to show the other side of the spectrum.
Today, I want to talk to you about a short article called Botnets exploit Linux owners' ignorance, which presents a grim picture of botnets actively engaging in cyber warfare against Linux [sic] and its owners. Naturally, there's always the not so subtle hint that the solution is in your pocket. Let's digest the original report, see what it says and what it means, and how thing relates to the average computer user.
