Then of course I repeat: There's        also Uncle Sam's servers with all that personal data... 8-O              My GUESS is that the biggest security risk is at the user end such as using        a discontinued OS. Wait lemme check. Whew, this Chromebook I'm posting with        is up to date.              But to be fair this Chromebook's AUE is up next year and I've only had it        for 4 years. I think they give you 10 years now but that's from manufacture        and I didn't check when I bought this one. So Maria, it'll become just like        your Windows 10 machine. It'll still work but the security???              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
