Every end user who conveniently doesn’t own hardware in alignment with the latest sales cycle mysteriously has found they are being put in a second class category and the slow lane. It’s a nod and a wink to the industry that play nice with them and you’ll make money. More product being a “more secure” operating system called Windows 11. Wishful thinking isn’t a wise business strategy.Īs per my comments in the Squid topic on models of reasoning this article by Arstechnica is part of the con by Microsoft to sell more product. No one is going back to the office anytime soon. They only caught 2 and they never recovered the laptop. It’s against corporate policy and often against the law to use public wifi for work, and the only way to stop that is negate the ability for it to be possible.Īn engineer who developed high speed data transfer tech was killed when his laptop was stolen from him at a Starbucks a few years ago.

I never bought the “anti security theatre” of Veracrypt which made my life more difficult because of dogma and assuming the user was so stupid they would aoutmatically fall for “false reassurance”. I have a fair idea of what it is and what its limitations are. There’s nothing on my laptop a nation state wouldn’t either know or guess at and anything really important never goes anywhere near the laptop or anything with a CPU or plug on the end.
