• Linux security mitigation broken for a year without anyone noticing

  Yes, https://grsecurity.net/ Why did you use archive.org to get to wikipedia?? - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Desktop User: Should I use a "hardened" kernel?

  There's https://grsecurity.net/, which has an additional patchset, but many argue (and I agree, that it violates the GPL). Source: about 1 year ago

• Opinion: The idea that software should be eternally updated in order to ensure security should be highly discouraged

  At the much more sophisticated end of the spectrum is the fundamental premise behind (grsecurity)[https://grsecurity.net/], who imo have been miles ahead of the game for over a decade.

• How does this work in Proton?! I was told it's impossible...

  Tails is a security-focused Linux distro that (by default) only runs as a live-USB and is not meant to be used as a traditional daily-driver. As you've probably understood by now, it's a 'limited' system for the sake of security and privacy.
