    Microsoft: heh heh heh, looks like you’ll be paying me $30 for that windows 10 installation.

    Me: Bitch, I’m on Windows 7, and keep ignoring the OS bitching at me to turn the firewall on!

          To be fair, that really depends what you use your PC for. Looking at youtube without a profile, and reddit and the news, playing music, offline games. You will be 100% fine. If you have to log into somewhere with sensitive data, don’t. But as a secondary device you PROBABLY will be fine. Requires significant discipline, to not accidentally log into facebook on it though.

            Me not logging into facebook doesn’t require discipline. I haven’t done it in…

            checks time

            …ever.

            Now, I DO log into government nuke code websites. And I also check Burger King’s website. Just to see if they still sell burgers.

            As of last week…they do!

              See for exaple the fact wheter you ‘have’ to have facebook kinda locates you as an American. This is the issue with ‘sensitive’ data you may or may not know what it is.

            Why are people on your LAN exploiting vulnerabilities on your computer? Don’t you also have a network firewall and NAT?

              The biggest danger isn’t viruses sneaking their way in, it’s from the web browser and email client.
