[davewolfgang]

Hahahhahahahhaaa

Yeah, download this "cool" thing from the internet.

Those Nigerians also want to use your bank account to get money out of the country, and you have an long lost British relative that left you a bunch of money too.....

25000 victims for teh lulz

 

[Temp_Username]

Sounds like an interesting OS if it doesn't harm your computer.

 

[EDVINASM]

I have simple rule when it comes to OS - never use someones else build. 25000 people think different.

 

[hannibal]

Would you download OS from well know hacker croup?
People are not sane!
And no the OS is not even from that group...

No wonder why there are so many "ghost" machines in the world.

"The #anonops on their twitter account say, 'That Anonymous-OS is wrapped in trojans.' Please people… in our world, in Linux and open source world, there is not virus," they said

Yeah thats rights....

 

[Parrdacc]

Who did not see this coming? Now for the conspiracy part. Insert government agency here was the one who released it going on the belief that those that would download it could have ties to anon. So by releasing it they in turn could spy on all those that did download it and find out who to go after. Not saying its true just a thought.

Then I hope you're using Gentoo and nothing else

 

[captaincharisma]

i know people are dumb enough to use linux in the first place but to use a version of it by anonymous now that is a whole new level

 

[extremepcs]

We know this is not true because Linux (and MacOS) is invulnerable to any kind of trojan, malware, or virus. Just goes to prove that ignorant people are the cause of infections... not the OS.

Wow. I really hope you are being sarcastic.

Ladies and gentlemen, please, settle down, we have an urgent announcement to make:

A download on the Internet has been found to contain malicious code! I know this is shocking, we're all taken by surprise here at PublicTech, too, but the word must go out!!1!!11
------------

Don't download random shit that hasn't been mentioned AT ALL previously by any of the people it claims to be associated with, m'kay?

If you knew how fucking stupid that made you look, and even worse, how aggressive you were to enforce your view... just... wow.

 

[Guest]

what's an os?

 

[sporkimus]

[citation][nom]extremepcs[/nom]She only charged me $20 for the hour...[/citation]
Apparently you forgot about Double Coupon Thursday's. You sir, were overcharged.

 

[freggo]

You've got to be bonkers to download that. Real or not real; you are inviting trouble.

 

[mautobu]

Run it in a VM on a private network? I THINK SO!

 

[alchemy69]

Anyone dumb enough to have installed that just to be one of the cool kids is going to get exactly what they deserve.

I'd assume the integral parts of anon are smart enough not to download this.. although I also assumed people were smart enough not to make their password 12345.

If you only knew how badly you overreacted to a joke... wow, just wow.

@captaincharisma

MacOS, iOS, Android and not to mention literally all firewalls and routers OS are all based off Linux, i guess the world is just full of dumb folks

Linux is not immune to any form of malware. No software is. Tell me how someone could not take Linux source code and build keyloggers or anything else directly into the OS.

In fact, this actually proves what I have thought for a long time, that open source is potentially more dangerous. You can't have a trojan wrapped version of Windows because Windows is closed source and for someone to do that they would have to steal the source code from Microsoft where as being open source, Linux code is freely available to anyone.
