Not directly related to FOSS, but yet another reminder of why I use Linux:

But Windows is easy to use, it just works (except when it doesn't).

Yep, that demonstrates why Linux is so much better. At it's best, when everything is working perfectly, AV dubious security.

If the "Anti-Virus" companies had their way, linux users would all run one of their "solutions", too.

Every year, there's a couple of papers/white papers/trade rag articles that warn that THIS is the year of Linux Malware. Wishful thinking, or perhaps believing their own propaganda.

When you see such scribblings, tell them to put up or shut up. Even better if you can find a similar rant from the previous year (which failed to materialize).
