I mean, I don’t agree, but I can see negative knock-on effects of Linux getting more popular… like more viruses and malware being developed for Linux and Linux noobs getting widely infected because Linux kind of requires you to know enough about your own system to secure it yourself while Microsoft does a lot of the security for you out of the box.

In my experience, UFW isn’t enabled out-of-the-box. Windows has a default Firewall enabled out of the box.

So yeah, unless Linux is quickly made a lot more user-friendly in terms of security, the growth in Linux can be seen as a bad thing.
