I download all my files with confidence.
Never have I obtained a virus in the past 3 years, and since I was 13 I've obtained 2 exactly.

Because, as I have explained many other times on this forum, downloading a file and running with your consent is not the only way to receive a virus. Contrary to popular belief.
For example, a popular site you go to may have been compromised and some malicious java script injected into the header file. This JS now evaluates your browser and other information it can get from your headers and if it determines you are vulnerable it may silently run a Java exploit, or maybe a flash exploit. Infected.
Here is a current flash exploit:
| Quote: | From the advisory:
When a Shockwave movie attempts to use an Xtra, it will download and install it as necessary. If the Xtra is signed by Adobe or Macromedia, it will be installed automatically without any user interaction. Because the location from which Shockwave downloads the Xtra is stored in the Shockwave movie itself, this can allow an attacker to host old, vulnerable Xtras that can be installed and exploited automatically when a Shockwave movie is played. |
You can read more about it here: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2012/12/shocking-delay-in-fixing-adobe-shockwave-bug/ |
Doesn't really justify your whole list.
Plus what are the chances of you getting "infected", do you browse shit sites? |
sometimes you have to download risky files bro, getting nudes of specific people off sketchy website links isn't the safest thing to do, but it is if you just use a vm |
name these sketchy websites lul
who downloads nudes off sketchy websites? 4chan exists for a reason |
4chan is a sketchy website, tons of viruses on /rs/

well potaters uses sandboxie not me, yeah vm and sandboxie is unnecessary, https everywhere is built into most browsers, the addon I use just keeps my preferences for sites with it, firefox already uses https whenever its possible.
