Why are people on your LAN exploiting vulnerabilities on your computer? Don’t you also have a network firewall and NAT?

To be fair, that really depends what you use your PC for. Looking at youtube without a profile, and reddit and the news, playing music, offline games. You will be 100% fine. If you have to log into somewhere with sensitive data, don’t. But as a secondary device you PROBABLY will be fine. Requires significant discipline, to not accidentally log into facebook on it though.

Me not logging into facebook doesn’t require discipline. I haven’t done it in…

checks time

…ever.

Now, I DO log into government nuke code websites. And I also check Burger King’s website. Just to see if they still sell burgers.

As of last week…they do!
