  • Do you think every single app should have permissions to screen record without you knowing, to keylog without you knowing?

    Can you point me to a single notable breach that happened because of this?

    Classical security thinking is that if you have a compromised app running, it’s all over anyway, and it’s time to wipe and reinstall. Luckily, this isn’t a problem on Linux because packages are vetted by distributions maintainers… unless…

    Unless the new plan is to transition from that to flatpak proprietary stores packaged by unknown developers, giving us trashware app stores like on Android and Windows.

    Sure, if you expect to run proprietary malware on Linux then some protection might be useful. But then you’re just running a shitty version of Windows, and not getting the historical cultural benefits of Linux anyway. Might as well run Windows.
