Honestly idc about sudo in windows bc i already disable the UAC totally, so... everything in my windows run as root like Windows XP era
You do you, but it's not anywhere as rough of an experience leaving it enabled as things used to be back then. This also exponentially increases the risk factor that some malware will fuck your shit right up.
I also wouldn't advertise it either. Like telling facebook that you never lock your door.
Malware issue........NOPE
Stability issue..........NOPE
Actually i've been doing this since Win7 era & never got any malware/spyware/ransomware bc i know what I'm doing exactly.
Actually the people who afraid about malware itself because people always visit some shady website, clicking shady links, & install shady software from it without knowing at all
Fixed that for you
Well i hope i never get malware
It's been 12 years streak that's i never got any malware on my PC/Laptop with UAC disabled permanently + only using NOD32/ESET as my daily antivirus (I don't like others antivirus even if it's from Microsoft)
You probably already have no-click cryptojacking malware from a malvertisement and don't even know it.
You wanna know what's way more effective than any anti-virus? An ad blocker + common sense. Unironically, the FBI & CISA tell you to use Adblock.
I haven't used any anti-virus at all on Windows, Linux, or MacOS for the past maybe 10ys. What's funny is that anti-virus is never 100% accurate and tends to slow down your computer. What's even funnier, is that Windows built-in anti-virus "Windows Defender" is already the most effective AV rendering any extra AV completely redundant & pointless.
Well i used adblocker with custom filter & script in it + i already masking my host & DNS for total secure. Even i already using it since before internet became suck
I got your point other antivirus other than Windows Defender is suck, but i really trust ESET/NOD32 because I've ben using it from really long time (20 years exactly) & it never got any issue since beginning
You use Windows, the spyware is already baked in. Windows profiles you & phones home and 3rd party companies the moment it gets an Internet connection, even in the installation environment.
Well you right, but i already disabled all that telemetry things + total debloat my windows
The best thing about this is that this will be available in enterprise environment which obviously can't disable UAC. Disabling it is incredibly stupid on a personal machine, but doing it in an enterprise environment is a death sentence.
