It's not that hard to avoid viruses, you just have to not be an idiot
Now, when I fix computers.
I just add linux mint on it, and leave a .txt how to.
Tbh, anti viruses are more dangerous than the actual viruses these days
Of course, I do add all the software to have it functional.
I want to disagree.. @Blaster Master .. but the evidence aligns.
And it's browsing habits that bring about infections.. moreso than any random vulnerability.
Most anti-virus are scams, like advanced system care, they load in their own scripts, and make it their slow.
Then.
When I had windows 10, after knowing everything about it.
For the last 5 years having it, I have never gotten a virus, even with no anti-virus programs.
They were also disabled.
Most virus's do comes from redirects, and website ads.
This is why I always run adblockers, and ublock origin.
And VPN's are a must now.
The human element is the weakest link in any security plan.
Don't browse random websites for porn
And if you get your software from the official source website, you're good.
Just also need to untick the bloat that comes included.
and you're safe to go, generally
although VPN's have a similar issue for anti viruses
they're probably getting WAY more data than they need
I can't use a VPN. I don't have any money
I only been using 1 free VPN, from Epikdotcom.
They have a twitter.
And it's anonymize.
This software was getting recommended during the internet crisis with NZ etc.
so it's just a vpn
but free?
You can look into it tho.
How do you earn money indirectly from hosting a vpn?
hmMmMmMM
Id guess sell data like everyone else.
>free stuff
Man I really want to get polybar.
Shit looks sexy as hell.
Been looking into void linux recently.
