Sep 13, 2021 at 13:40 comment added UTF-8 @ceillac Read up on RMS' warnings about universal backdoors in proprietary operating systems from 30 years ago and see that they have come true. E.g.: forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2015/08/30/… MS and Apple can push out an update that modifies the OS in any way they desire at any point and the OS will not ask you as the used for consent but simply do what their owners (MS/Apple) told them to. Via an arbitrary update, arbitrary malicious behavior can be introduced at arbitrary points in time.

Sep 1, 2016 at 21:07 comment added UTF-8 Well, of course. Germany has laws about everything and in this case it's TKG § 110 and this act.
