I just received a call from an indian microsoft technician. He informed me that my PC is sending a ton of error messages to microsoft. Most likely it has been hacked, and he would help me by remoting in and fixing the problem for me. I just wonder… Is it my PopOs or my Manjaro PC that sends all this info to microsoft?
#2 is a dangerous assumption!
True! Any hacker that wants into a system and has the skills will usually find a way in. I do my best to set up firewalls and encrypt important stuff but even that wouldn’t be enough if I was seriously targeted personally. I know that.
