Ngeshwa, akusikho okokuqala ukuthi bangene kusayithi kernel.org, ngoba ngonyaka we-2011 baphinde bahlaselwa, kepha lokho bekungaziwa kakhulu, ngoba imininingwane yamanye amalungu nayo isetshenziselwe ukungena futhi faka i-malware.

Yize kuze kube yimanje imbangela yalelo cala ayikaziwa, ngoba imininingwane emincane kakhulu isishicilelwe futhi akubonakali sengathi sebebambile abenzi bobubi.
Inhloso yokufaka umnyango ongemuva ozocekela phansi abasebenzisi bebumbano yehlulekile ……
