This is a security alert for everyone who owns a computer, which I think is all of us. If one is allowing windows updates then your computer should be secure. I suggest one read the whole alert and make a personal decision about their own computer.

A Critical Deadline Is Approaching for Windows and Linux Security
Stay safe people. Be aware using a computer, getting on the web may be more dangerous than driving in Dallas traffic. The world is loaded with those who want to steal from everyone else. At times destroying the life of the person they stole from.

... the general consesnus after a search is probably to keep linux systems updated. I am a linux mint user. I tend to check the kernel updates that come in and read the changelogs but almost always end up applying all the new system updates that come to my laptop. So far everything has been good and there are no issues. I dislike windows and have moved on from that steaming pile of garbage over 10 years ago.
