I don't disagree with that but some OS re-installs also correspond with buying an entirely new machine. And I'm the kind of paranoid person which burns instal DVDs and then checks the DVD's checksums from an offline computer before doing an install on my desktop, for example. Now, sure, the rootkit may try to hide in my Git repos (but that's not the easiest trick to pull) or shell scripts (but they're versioned with Git) etc. I still like it that way: a good old write-once DVD, checksum'ed, and a brand new install. Ideally on new hardware but that's not always the case. |
