GNU/Linux is Best for Secure File Deletion

Are we paranoid?

The smart people always say that we cannot be paranoid enough.

But don't worry.  GNU/Linux has the absolute best file deletion
utilities:

You probably won't find this on any distro.  You've got to build
it yourself.

If using an ext3 filesystem with "data=ordered" journal then any
file can be totally nuked with:

srm -v file

For the extra paranoid, just mount as ext2 for no journal.

To delete all traces of previously insecurely deleted files
just do:

sfill -v directory/mountpoint


With GNU/Linux there is never a worry.

With Microslop you won't get much sleep.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

GNU/Linux empowers the technical elite.

Microslop allows the brain-dead to digitally finger paint.
