Hi. I wanted to know if it’s needed to install a firewall on a linux desktop/laptop. Why yes or why no?

    I’d say if you plan on using it any public places, or if you don’t have full control over all the computers/technology in your home network, it’s a good idea to run one. It’s a nice last resort should someone on the same lan have a piece of malicious software.
