We learned that computer security had issues during Viet Nam. The problem was studied, lessons were learned, and the problem was actually solved, about 50 years ago. Unfortunately, the PC computer wave washed interest in those solutions down the drain.

Because of this, Windows, MacOS, Linux, are all insecure by design.

Because of that, you can't really host your own servers on the internet, unless you're a die-hard IT guy.

Because of that, the only game in town is walled gardens.

Because of that, everything has to be paid for, thus the algorithm, thus the rot of society.

All because we thought Unix's security model was good enough.
