An article published in iTWire titled “Opinion: why Linux sucks at being user friendly” has been drawing a lot of attention recently. I am going to start by responding to each of the author’s points and then pointing out what I think the overall problem is.

2. The second point states that Linux heavily protects the system, while leaving the user’s data open to attack.
