2 days agoI really dont like the idea that a program on my local os doing things I don’t want it to do and the only thing stopping it is a software firewall.
If you don’t trust the platform then you shouldn’t be using it. No bandaid like antivirus or firewall can help with that.
I absolutely agree that additional security layers are useful and even necessary. A software firewall on the device itself just isn’t one of them. For me.
