I'm an old C programmer that cut my teeth on Unix system 3 back in the early eighties, so I'm with ya. I LOVE Unix/Linux and I HATE windows. However, we're still screwed from a security standpoint no matter what browser we use. The 3 letter agency dickheads infiltrated Intel shortly after the Pentium chip set was released and AMD was infiltrated shortly after. They have back doors to EVERYTHING. So, yea, we can hide behind VPN's and use non-google stuff, but they still got a back door that we don't have the ability to close. Huawai learned from us ironically. Glad Trump closed the door on those a-holes and I hope Biden is too stupid to recognize it. We, however, gotta start paying attention to the technology we're employing.
