Well worth watching. And noteworthy that he does not mention added
anti-malware software at all. Simply not needed in most cases.
An excellent presentation!

Thank you. :-)

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.

But saves electricity as well. ;-)

Plus, it will continue doing what it's doing indefinitely, without
needing to install constant updates. ;-)

And would improve Usenet if some did that.

Spackle! If there is a port to anywhere outside the computer, spackle
over it. Power, USB, Ethernet, ventilation openings, the works; spackle
over it.

Disclosure: I got this from John McAfee, when he was still a funny guy,
many years before he became strange and dangerous and insane and an
international fugitive and dead. He ran a dialup BBS in Santa Clara,
California, and threw monthly pizza parties for his BBSers. Too bad what
he became eventually.
