Reload in "Reader View" or something similar, the paywall is weak.

US government does not have a public fund or tax to pay for the development of a government sanctioned Unix/GNU operating system by a US company. Once that happens, then this issue goes away.

redhat is just sitting right there.... waiting,

Not the greatest company to work with

In reality it is more complex. However, I know the air force uses a ton of Linux and related tools such as Kubernetes and Samba. Who would've thought a fighter jet would be running kubernetes

The US Government Has a Microsoft Problem
Microsoft has stumbled through a series of major cybersecurity failures over the past few years. Experts say the US government’s reliance on its systems means the company continues to get a free pass.

Many governments have that same problem. I'd actually consider it a bigger problem for those other governments.

It's extra funny that the PR drone MS have wheeled out has the last name Faehl - how's that pronounced, I wonder... Could it be fail?
Fitting really...
Personally, I'm deeply entwined in the MS
product stackpillar of turds and I hate it. They appeared to gave made an honest effort after the trustworthy computing initiative, but that has clearly been eroded...Why they've got everyone's trust, I just can't understand. Convenience trumps everything else, I guess...

Remember the South Park movie, when they wanted to invade, and when their visualisation failed, called for Bill Gates?

Isn't this a place for memes?

It is, but I suck at it. Hopefully, someone will grab the screenshot and make it into a meme.

I wonder when chat gpt being included in everything will backfire. How many requests are being sent to a multiple servers that people are unaware of and how secure are those servers?
Yeah my company enabled the use of copilot with our corporate Microsoft accounts. I don't understand how you can open such a massive can of worms to ALL your users. It's pretty much begging for information to completely leave corporate control. It's absolutely insane.
I asked copilot how to turn off copilot, and it responded with "It is probably time to change the question topics"
For most commercial products they offer what they call Copilot with data protection.
I hate that they are shoving it down everyone's throat but data leakage is a primary company concern that they have addressed.
Now, how much that is true on the backend is anyone's guess, but they're selling something that they could be held legally accountable for.
Especially since you can have self hosted versions.
I mean they've been doing multitenancy in Azure for a while.. I'd be pretty surprised if the data input from copilot was not handled in the same manner.
Local government is also having this issue. Lots of cities don't have the resources so will probably throw a lot at gpt...which means a very large attack vector.
Google is worse
Google is bad, but it isn’t being integrated ant the operating system level.
