“I use Linux for confidentiality reasons”

cyberdetective writes: “As I explained in International Herald Tribune the article, I use Linux for security reasons. I’m a Private Investigator, and I don’t want that a virus sends some of my documents when I open my mails. Many companies don’t know what is infowar. Is is very easy for every body to download a virus or a trojan, send it by email, and receive confidential informations. All professional like lawers, accountants, doctors, investigators, should use Linux for these reasons. How many people know that when they send a Word Document, they can deliver confidential informations? Make a test if you use Windows. Take a Word Document, save it, and rename it in “.txt”. Open it, and you will see interesting things!”
