I don&#x27;t know how anyone can lump Linux in with Windows when it comes to security from NSA spying and then say OpenBSD is a good alternative.<p>HN seems to love the anti-Linux FUD though. Anything that further fractures the OSS community is upvoted fast.<p>I like the BSDs too, but there are a ton of reasons Linux is the most popular kernel in the world, it&#x27;s not just because the NSA makes it so.
