seriously though, Linux is still, at its highest, 3.5% market share according to last month's Steam Hardware Survey. That's bigger than macOS but Windows is still at a whopping 94.2%.

I'd imagine it's also the reason why VMware is taking their sweet time porting Workstation to Wayland/GTK4.

중국 정부가 자국 기업에 미국 및 이스라엘 사이버보안 소프트웨어 사용 중단 지시

10여 개의 해당 기업에 이미 며칠 사이에 지침을 발송하였다.

중단 지시 근거는 간첩 활동 및 사보타주 우려이며, 기술 자립화 및 대체 노력의 일환으로 해석된다.

China has reportedly banned several American and Israeli cybersecurity firms, including VMware, Palo Alto Networks, and Fortinet, citing national security concerns. Beijing fears the software could transmit confidential data abroad, aligning with its broader push to replace Western technology with domestic alternatives amid escalating US-China tech tensions. China has reportedly banned several American and Israeli cybersecurity firms. According to a report by the news agency Reuters, Chinese authorities told local companies to stop using cybersecurity software from about a dozen foreign providers due to national security concerns. The ban includes US companies like Broadcom-owned VMware, Palo Alto Networks, and Fortinet.
