Why is this LINUX Weekly News?Why is this LINUX Weekly News?Posted Nov 11, 2010 17:18 UTC (Thu) by Epicanis (guest, #62805)Parent article: Gathering session cookies with Firesheep
Really a minor nit-pick (since after all it seems like a solid majority of web SERVERS run Linux) but... Firesheep is not even available for Linux. Only a couple of proprietary operating systems. At least, it still isn't available for Linux as I type this (a week after this LWN Weekly Edition story came out).

True, though the developer claims that Linux support is coming. But Linux users have to be just as concerned about Firesheep even though it doesn't (yet) run on Linux. Someone running it on another OS will be able to sniff credentials of Linux users just as easily.
