Re: [Full-disclosure] Gödel and kernel backdoors

The solution could be a virtualized operating system, which has a control layer 
between the operating system and the hardware abstraction layer. Changes to 
data could be non-persistent in the first step, and only written to the hdd 
after a heuristic check of the changes and a interaction with the user.  

In the end, the problem is on one side the os vendor bothering endusers with 
stupid stop signs that can be disabled with a simple click, and on the other 
side the user again, clicking on every accept button like a woodpecker.
