Yes It is time for everyone to get off of everything and anything micro$oft. There's a FOSS (free open source software) alternative out there to just about any major software package. I've been on Linux for 10 years, never looked back. Let me know if you have questions, I can help.
Unfortunately IBM purchased Red Hat a little while back, but no, as of now, Linux is an open source project and is not owned by anyone. Load Linux on a separate hard disk (or USB flash drive if you have one) so you can boot back to windows if you absolutely have to.
No because your CPU has the backdoor. Doesnt matter what OS you are running.
Time to make our own silicon fabs and get to making cpus.
haha jk. There is nothing you can do to stop them from having full access to your computer. Linux or windows. Doesnt matter when its built into the hardware.
you cant overwrite a backdoor built into the hardware. Sorry but IS NOT SOFTWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can I just reload current machine with Linux? Is Linux an IBM product?

Linux is an open source code world wide...

While this is true, you can in a lot of cases overwrite the IME. But Linux is far better than windoze in any case.

Thanks. I guess there is no real privacy anymore unless the only electric device is an old 2 slice toaster .
