Day's satisfaction: For some time now, I've been setting up VPS for clients based on FreeBSD and divided into jails for hosting various services. A while ago, a client installed two WordPress sites: one on one of these VPS and another on his Linux VPS. I haven't heard from him in a while. This morning, he sent me a message: "Hi, unfortunately, an outdated WordPress plugin allowed someone to break in and insert malicious content into my two VPS. The significant difference is that the Linux VPS started mining cryptocurrencies, generating traffic, and sending emails, while the FreeBSD VPS did absolutely nothing. I found the malicious content, but, of course, it didn't work. Thanks!"

Sometimes not being the most popular platform on the web has its advantages!
