    Do not use windows or Microsoft solutions. That’s security rule #1.

    For that to work, the hardware vendors should sell hardware that has opensource code that is easily corrected if there’s a security or other type of problem. For that to happen, Microsoft and other such companies need to stop monopolizing technologies. The government should make some changes to their parenting system. For example it should be illegal for companies to force their scientists and engineers to sell their patents automatically to the company. Instead only human people who can invent things should be the owners of the things they invent. If a company wants to keep a hold on that tech, keep the people who invented it happy. Let them own their tech so they can decide to sell it, trade it or make it free. Make it such that only people and not corporations can actually own the patents. Inquire and investigate companies that don’t follow the rules.
