Well, users (hackers) want to have control over system, not being under control by system. Windows and OSX does not provide control to user.

Before you have control of one system, you need control of your own. Often they hack their own hardware and other things they own too.

I disagree with OSX not providing control to the user.

See, steve jobs stole FreeBSDM which provides unlimited control to the user and is pretty much the same operating system today.

I-Is it also so they can save images like that without being blacklisted?

Blacklisted from what?
>>
Well hackers as in people who love tinkering love linux because its open and customizable.

Hackers who break into shit need to know linux because most servers out there run linux, plus its better for hacking than using a windows system. Most exploits are written in C and use linux headers and functions and shit therefore can be compiled and runned, even though you can use cygwin on windows, its still a piece of shit. Plus linux is ideal for anonymity since its open and can be customized as non bloated piece of shit. Also you'll look alot cooler using the command line most of the time.

s-shut up, anon! baka.

>>51688052
well you use (Ganoo plus) Linux (or FreeBSD or something) because it has better tools for that sort of thing and they're in the repos and work well with the rest of the OS. Windows is just now getting a built-in SSH client. I mean come on, in the words of a certain shitty comedian, it's 2015.

It's not enough to have a Unix system. We must also have access to the source code so that we can change every part that we want.

>>51688531
Proprietary closed source does not give you control

>>51693103
the source to the unix parts of osx is all available. The only closed source parts really are the GUI.
