Episode 196 - Pounding square solutions into round holes: forced updates from Ubuntu
Josh and Kurt talk about automatic updates. Specifically we discuss a recent decision by Ubuntu to enable forced automatic updates. There are lessons here for the security community. We have a history of jumping to solutions rather than defining and understanding problems. Sometimes our solutions aren't the best. Also murder bees.
Show Notes- The Oatmeal giant bee comic
- Honeybees cook giant hornet
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS' snap obsession has snapped me off of it
- Forum discussion
