Now I'm a pragmatist when it comes to technology. While I enjoy it, and feel it can enable us to do great things, I don't think of it as some holy grail. The idea has been around for a long while that Unix/Linux/MacOS were immune to viruses. Let's get real folks. It's all software which means it all has flaws, ergo it can all be subject to virus activity. Whether you're running Windows, Linux, MacOS, or all of the above, the simple fact of the matter is that antivirus requirements are out there, and either through total isolation and containment or through extreme due diligence are you going to be safe.

So remember the Vraxx moto, go out there, play around in the net, but always practice safe hex.
