I use Linux on all my computers and the 'the system update' paradox is something that I am still a bit puzzled with. Everything I read on security stresses the importance of updates, yet, updating is leaving a system vulnerable to a “golden key” backdoor. From a security point of view, is it safer to leave a system in its original installed state or is it best to update frequently?
