gollark: Linux has USB device whitelisting, but nobody uses it.
gollark: MacOS is getting that, actually.
gollark: Well, yes, they're not amazing magic things which can immediately do anything if you plug them in, but they... can do bad things.
gollark: That is true, although my laptop doesn't support Thunderbolt so all I have to worry about is... electronic hardware attacks and rubberducky-type things?
