Advanced Plus Security Glynn's Security Config 2019

Hi

Back to Windows 10

Linux rolling releases takes way too much data to keep updated.

I need iTunes and also TomTom software which is not available for Linux at all.

I feel very safe with shadow defender always on in any case.

Good setup based on the Linux OS, thanks for sharing.

What made you choose Solus? Just curious, as I haven't bumped into Solus users yet...

A while ago I still played games and was looking for gaming linux distro that’s also rolling release. Solus fit the bill perfectly. So that’s the reason, go figure I don’t play games anymore, but I am not going to change distros now, no more data for downloading 1.5 GB distros.

Removed:

• Windscribe extension
  • (reason: must log in again when browser was closed=way too much time wasted cause password is long)
• Bitdefender trafficlight
  • (reason: url's sent to them for every page you visit)

Re-Added:

• Windscribe VPN free 10GB(free account only allows 1 connection, so I must logout on phone and then login on pc Firefox.)

 

[Glynn]

ok hopefully last change

Removed:

• uBlock Origin
  • Reason (Windscribe VPN has ad/tracker/etc blocking built-in)

Removed:

Netcraft extension :emoji_expressionlessnot in my threat vector)
Windscribe VPN (browsing is ridiculously slow and idc anymore if they know my browsing habits or my ISP).

Added:

uBlock Origin with default filters.(Idc about medium/advanced mode and a billion filters)

Linux rolling releases takes way too much data to keep updated.

I need iTunes and also TomTom software which is not available for Linux at all and running virtualbox irritates me.
