Would you take a "Free Upgrade to Windows 10" after the chairman of the
developers of Windows 10 just called for mandatory backdoors in all
computers?

Meanwhile its main competitor which advertises being more secure and
(misleadingly) advertises lack of malware, is fighting against it?

Statements like that cause stock prices to plunge.

In other words, you have none. You can shut up now.

Except he didn't.

Not that it matters. Windows is wide open without any mandatory backdoor

He doesn't want "mandatory backdooors".

I'm not sure if Windows desktops even need a backdoor. They don't
generally use full-disk encryption, like the new phones do, and other
privacy solutions, like GPG, probably can't be backdoored.

No one* need jump on me, if I'm missing something. I'm no expert on
encryption security.

*Like Ezekreep, who interpreted my statements regarding storing
encryted files on the cloud to mean files that apps like Google Docs
would need to manipulate, as if I didn't know that Google Docs would
not be able to deal with your encrypted files. The Kreep is a
*stupid* asshole and a liar, and doesn't mind making a fscking idiot
of himself, if it allows him to attack his betters.

Truth from Peter the Klöwn. Call the presses!

Meanwhile, the security holes that end up being reported in the news
nowadays are from open-source projects such as Android.

khazars are not a "race" but a bastard "race" lie all of eastern Europe & ex Soviet northern states that did not come in existence circa 700 years ago. It adopted Judaism, that does not make it a Semite. Most Semites are from the Middle East. As "slimer" is part of this genetic scum that has yet to produce anything from that part of the world -therefore a well known expression "bastard by race, bastard by nature". This seen in actual history, the invasion of the West by this EEU vermin, changing the entire identity to suit its own needs, western wars 1 and 2, invasion of the roots of Christianity & worshiping a Roman horse stable called:

WAILING WALL = FORT ANTONIO REMAINS *NOT* OLD TEMPLE

DEVILS AT THE WAILING WALL

[AUDIO] http://www.texemarrs.com/popcast/4313.m3u

The “Jews” are perpetrating a monumental hoax on Christians
and the West by presenting their Wailing Wall, in Jerusalem
on the Temple Mount, as the holy and sacred remains of their
famed Jewish Temple. In fact, the Western Wall, as it is better
known, was not part of the Temple, but is a remnant of the
Roman’s old and historic Fort Antonia. Jesus Himself
prophesied that, of the Temple, not one stone would be left
upon another. It would be totally destroyed, and in 70 A.D.,
it was, by Roman General Titus. But four centuries ago, a
plot was worked to use this wall as a propaganda device to
unite the Jews and to confound the Moslems. Today,
dumbed-down American and European politicians and
Hollywood stars trek to the Wailing Wall and put their
written prayer in a crack in the wall’s missing mortar.
This voodoo mumbo-jumbo is then broadcast across the globe.

Khazar Whites are not Semites, it wants your children for sex slavery, its organs stolen, kiddie fiddling, an active 5th column, protected hate speech, arms smuggling, Nazi inventing & funding, etc. The list is endless

More mis-informed nonsense. Windows has had full disk encryption since
at least 8.1

You don't appear to be an expert on anything judging by most of your posts.

It has since Win2K. But in W2K it is extremely easy to defeat.
starting with XP it is halfway secure, but has lots of problems (and still
has) when several users in a network have access to encrypted files

Well, about once every five years or so, I get corrected by an idiot.

(Cue "What does that make you?" idiocy.)

Fixed your post for you.

If you stowed your pre-conceived ideas and did a little bit of research
you wouldn't look like an idiot now.

You forgot to post the actual quote from Gates where he "wants mandatory
backdoors."

Then again, we all know that there is no such quote.

He certainly knows nothing about encryption, software testing or the basics
of electrical engineering.

Fact is that files in the cloud were *never* mentioned once in that thread
which was about Google Docs. So your excuse simply doesn't hold water. Yes
turd, you made a jackass of yourself. Put on your big boy pants and deal
with it.

Didn't think you had the brains that God gave a cockroach, fsckwit.

How about encrypting things that they don't want others to see?

Turdv should quit screaming and simply accept the fact that he's not very
bright.

"Export-grade." Right. Not much of Winblows is "export grade".

turdv - a Windows user frothing over something he's too ignorant to
understand. Not bright enough to realize that "export-grade" encryption is
"weak encryption."
