Hello,

I’ve heard that Ubuntu may not fully prioritize user privacy and collects telemetry data. Could you please clarify:

Is this accurate? Are there Linux distributions that place a stronger emphasis on privacy?

Thank you 🙏🏼

    Fedora Atomic is not more secure than traditional Fedora. That is a misconception.

    Qubes, Kicksecure/Whonix, and Secureblue are basically the only major security focused Linux distros.

    Tails is focused on anonymity, not simply privacy (same with Whonix). Tails is not really security hardened.

      Why is Fedora atomic not more secure? It is literally immutable. Which kills the concept of persistent malware, unless they archive a complex exploit chain to gain root and install a malicious package and then reboot into the new iso, which is easier said then done.
