Oh, because of the China drama? I read up on that and that seems to have been cleared since then. Even so, there is also HopToDesk. I just think we should always suggest open-source here whenever possible.

Isn’t TeamViewer closed-source? Why are you not recommending RustDesk?

Well, I’m not a dev and did that just for SideQuest access, so it’s easy enough… but yeah, for those wishing (near-)total anonymity, I see what you mean…

Go on… How are you doing so?

That’s exactly what they’re hoping for, and why we need to keep pouring out our outcry to reach them and hope they become more tech-literate.

Wait, what?

Wow, I never heard about this malware trend. I guess this kind of crap will only increase with AI’s help…

I had a user do that with video editing software… seriously, what could go wrong? Ransomware. Literally ransomware.

What app was that? I’m guessing the software was not FOSS.
