Re: Debian Desktop Environment

Security and privacy are not products. No software provides them as a finished product ready for consumption. Software is just a tool used in achieving either. One must also ask and answer: security against _what_?. The habits of the user are just as important, and very often they are the

Re: Debian Desktop Environment
