Better web and email client design (particularly sandboxing and good defaults) and selinux are better ways forward. Trying to enumerate malicious stuff doesn't scale well and relies on someone doing the enumeration and providing you with updates before it gets to you. Not having people treat programs as data would be another nice thing to have happen, but there are a lot of entities pushing that, so don't expect those to go away soon. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
