FWIW, this isn’t to do with me personally at all, I’m not looking to do anything dodgy here, but this came up as a theoretical question about remote work and geographical security, and I realised I didn’t know enough about this (as an infosec noob)...
I am currently on win10 but have been toying with mint and liking it. I intend on fully switching over soon.
