Unfortunately, a lot of the cons are out of your hands -- but they're not really Linux's fault, either.

Ark Linux project developers operate on a "no-frills" policy when it comes to deciding what features will be included in their distribution. They strive to provide only the tools necessary for a typical desktop user, creating a lean, mean Linux. When some users came asking for more features, rather than violate their policy of simplicity, the developers launched a completely new company called YOLD (Your Own Linux Distribution). |

The system, dubbed Cognito, uses polygraph-like techniques to detect when a passenger is worried during a series of questions. Within 5 minutes, the system makes a determination of whether the passenger should be further questioned by authorities, according to the company. "What we are looking for are patterns of behavior that indicate something all terrorists have: the fear of being caught," Shabtai Shoval, chief executive of biometric systems maker Suspect Detection Systems, told the Wall Street Journal in a Monday article.

Tom Newton from SmoothWall, said: “The new child online safety card has been over-hyped and could end up causing more harm than good. Of course, it is a worthy idea and will certainly be a blueprint for future similar schemes, but this initial effort has some serious flaws."
