Comment Is Anything Secured? online/offline? (Score 1) 472
Do you consider *nix be more secure than Win 7? Given the recent leaks about these data collection efforts... Which OS would you say has the most integrity from a privacy prospective?
All these stories on /. lately are starting to make me wonder if I should... 1. Always disconnect system's, from the network, when not actively being used. This could lead to issues by not being connected to receive patches & etcetera.
2. Build virtual machines offline and maintaine offline and reverting back to my, somewhat trusted, offline maintained VM images (using snapshots or similar)
Any other ideas, advice or opinion's would be greatly appericated.
