    The rules of cybersecurity:

    1. Under no circumstances should you own a computer.

    2. If you absolutely must own a computer, under no circumstances should you connect it to the internet.

    3. If you absolutely must connect it to the internet, it’s too late and they already have you

      I know this is a joke but im old enough we used to install the os and had it on the network and eventually update it but then it got to the point were like being connected to the internet for like a minute and the machines were compromised. Thats when we got off our duffs and started making custom installs that had updates and configurations and software pre installed before we even connected it to the net.
