If you are a new Linux user and you’ve ever wondered if you need an antivirus program for the open source operating system, there are some links that will help you to understand the reasons for installing one, if necessary.

Edited to English: I had posted an English version and a Spanish version. The English version had so many down votes that it got hidden for possible moderation. So now I’m editing this previously Spanish version to English. The blog post has links to English and Spanish. Thank you all for your feedback.

        One of the podcast links does not work because, apparently, the episode hasn’t been linked. TuxDigital.com has undergone changes. It was DestinationLinux.network

        If you click on the Media File Link and on the YouTube Video link, you will find that those do have a live link.

        Thank you for your feedback.

        Edit: I sent TuxDigital.com the following email:

        "Hi TuxDigital and Destination Linux Crew,

        I just wanted to let you know that I was trying to find Destination Linux Episode 200 in the TuxDigital podcast website, but I couldn’t find it.

        I searched using the number 200. I found This Week In Linux 200. But I didn’t find Destination Linux 200.

        I also tried a link based on other episode links, but changing the episode number:

        https://tuxdigital.com/podcasts/destination-linux/dl-200

        Unfortunately, that returns a 404 error.

        Here’s my blog where I’m linking your content:

        Antivirus in Linux – Do You Need It? https://libre2.news.blog/2025/04/02/antivirus-in-linux-do-you-need-it

        I love your Linux content and the banter between all of you.

        Best regards,

        Tom Marrero"

        Hopefully they can find the episode website and link it.

      Because he’s a blog spammer. Sure the question is valid but his “article” is just links to various youtube videos. The blog itself has zero substance.
