That's the point, Martin, the article is not aimed to company
devices/users, is aimed to average people. So encrypting isn't basic, most
of people don't do it.

I guess the article should tell people what to actually do to be secure, not comfort them that everything is fine :) Especially when it's super easy as Ryan mentioned.

ma.

So it's maybe a good idea to add that advise with a couple of words about
why is good.
My thoughts.


Cheers, thanks,
Sylvia

Desktop team does a great job indeed.  Using Fedora is gets better

I understand you very well, what you don't understand is my point of
view.  To avoid using password and so, you need some knowledge that
most of thieves haven't.  If they had it, they would be working on IT
instead of robbing people.
I know it can be done, but the usual case is  "dude who sees a
valuable device, take it and goes away".
But could be a good idea adding your suggestion about encryption and
explaining a bit why is a good measure, just in case the hypothetical
thieve happens to have some knowledge. What do you think?


I guess the home dir encryption is rather basic as it's usually mandatory
for company owned devices, no mater if you run Windows/Linux or whatever
else.
