man I really want to strip down intel ME, but its way too much of an effort -put on anti-static gloves -open case and take out motherboard, even more painful on laptop -find the bios EEPROM -attach the eeprom flasher clips -either flash it using a raspberry pi or a eeprom programmer why am I lazy to do it, I feel bad for not taking the security and privacy of my system more seriously

Root is a security risk

is that one of the android one projects?
Candy
Yes, which is why C is responsible for 80% of vulns along with its friend C++
These bugs are all easy for people to understand as far as rules of the C language go. They're just hard bugs to find. I don't think complexity of the language standard is the issue here. If anything, it's too simple

the non control of root, is a security risk

I would say to just install stuff like lineage os, but someone told me that its security is worse than the stock rom

They even publicized a security vulnerability then never fixed it

And 40% of their new devices were vulnerable

Lineageos is hardly secure or private
they at least have to respect our privacy, right?

though sometimes there are facts, you can't really give an opinion on a fact "I think 2+2 is 5"

Stock roms will have better security or privacy

You'll see the size of the rom go down by 60%

So, 60% of lineage is just proprietary blobs stolen off the stock rom
