I find it odd that the author didn't mention secureblue at all. I wonder why they didn't consider that option?

I actually forgot to mention it, but I was going to say anyway that sandboxing I deem less ideal than paravirtualization

I don't know anything about that but it sounds interesting. If you have any sources for further reading about sandboxing vs paravirtualization, I'd like to read up on it

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
