> OS X is locked down guys!11!

Give me three solid reasons why this is true. I'll give you the first one - it requires hacking to install on anything besides Apple hardware.

I need to find an antivirus, /g/.

MSE is garbage
Avira gave me an INSANE amount of false positives.
Avast is giving me troubles of a special kind specific to only me.

Do I have any remaining options that are decent and free? I already take plenty of precautions so a small footprint is more important to me than maximum protection.

>common sense
Some of us have the common sense to account for the unexpected and human error.

Why do you care if the NSA/Corporations know everything about you?

A lot of you live with your parents and almost never go out. You have no privacy. Your parents know everything about you and they know your whereabouts all the time. Everyone you grew up with knows you are a unemployed, non-student loser who lives with his parents and writes simple programs all day. You don't have financial freedom either because you depend on your parents for shelter.

A large minority of you live away from home in some dead end job with your Linux desktop while making superficial changes to your cyber habits like using Chromium or Firefox. Most of you who do this still use mainstream email that can be accessed by the US government without a subpoena after 6 months. You also have mainstream internet service providers that will bust you for using public trackers.

The deeper you get into this privacy bullshit, the more ridiculous it gets. If you really wanted privacy, you would go mainstream with all of your coding. You would learn Java, C++, and C# like a pro to earn as much money as possible so you could get a nice, big fat check to spend on security software and hardware. The only way to get security is to buy it. That's why corporations and government pay people to engineer secure systems for themselves. Instead of shying away from social media, use it to get a job. Don't want a Facebook account? Fine. Get a GitHub account, a Linked in account, a Reddit account, and a private website. Only talk to other nerds about programming and business. Project a completely normal persona onto social media and hide your real self behind a firewall and 5012-bit encryption.

What we know about you does not matter. It just stays on our servers until you break the law. Start worrying about what your peers think of you instead of what we know about you, because we will not even bother to know your first name until you post CP on /b/, try do ddos some site, or plan terrorism.

Bye.
