        The answer isn't to Hunting Sysadmins isn't to protect the admin, it's to limit their liability - @Snowden. See:http://aka.ms/jea

        @Lee_Holmes Useful, but sandboxing > privileges against TLAs. They can target the admin with the right permissions from step one.

        @Snowden With correct role segmentation, you can mitigate that risk. I.e.: Office 365 can be set to let you manage mail w/o reading it.

        Migrated to Qubes and love it. @rootkovska et al. are brilliant. And kudos to @Puri_sm for addressing the low level stack.

        @Snowden @NSAGov @QubesOS Cubes is hugely promising, but it's not user friendly and quite complex. I wouldn't recommend it to most folks.

        @dejiridoo @nsagov @qubesos @snowden think I'd probably also need a newer laptop, not held together with duct tape, to run it on.

        @andrewdavidwong I have a blank 120GB external SSD. Can I run #QubesOS on that? (I have a MacBook Pro retina w/ OS X 10.11.4) Thank you!!

        @jackhawley 120GB is definitely large enough, but MacBook Pro compatibility is tougher. Check out the MBP entries:https://www.qubes-os.org/hcl/
