"... if people seem interested."
... I certainly find it interesting!
China. Wow, if you had given us all one guess, what % of your respondents would've guessed this country? Along with their puppet North Korea, it is very sad the damage caused by these 2 countries relentless cyber warfare ...
With a family member at a global level of responsibility for cyber security, in their position inside a global giant, as much as they can share and remain in compliance with their confidentiality agreements, we hear about China a lot ...
What is your view of using Linux vs. Microsoft's Windows 11 Professional OS? With the coming of embedded AI (whether we think we've opted out or not), I have read in other places about the value of Linux to protect oneself, but ... Seems the learning curve is awful steep!
I don't know about my respondents, but I'm not surprised personally. I see a lot of places like The Netherlands, and other European countries, but I'm fairly certain that's just North Korea or China behind a VPN. I do on occasion see Russia or previous Soviet Union areas, but nothing like the CN bots.
I honestly can't answer that question. I've been 100% Linux user since the mid 90s, other than what little I use the computer at work, and the time I worked at a computer store fixing PCs (99% virus removal, XP days).
re: AI, I'm a big fan of AI, if it's actually embedded and the data doesn't go anywhere (yeah, right) I don't see any issue, it's the willingly handing over personal information that I have an issue with.
re: Learning curve, it is, not going to lie. They have been moving the bar to "more friendly for new people" in the last few years, and I have been able to play games with little to no issue (which was a huge pain point a few years ago) so, I would say it's progress, but they really need to look at Apple to get the right idea, it's Unix based to, and a LOT of their users are pretty oblivious to that fact, and it is user friendly.
Thanks @ecoinstant , keep bringing them to me :)
Very good. Thank you for your comprehensive response (my upvotes are meaningless or I would provide a big one).
Exactly. While making no claim to being an AI expert, it is inconceivable to me that a legitimate claim could be made that your data does not go anywhere.
Leaving us with the all-important question of whether or not we can / should trust:
Anyway, on we go. Thank you for the details re: Linux and confirming any switch over to that OS would not be a "faint of heart" exercise. I wish it wasn't needed ...
