are there illegal schools teaching kernel module writing?


Yes. A silly example I encountered just yesterday, looking for usermodehelper invocation examples: https://gist.github.com/muratdemirtas/31b46c459c9c2e285ed71b...

Commenter asks:

> also, question: Why is it called linux_keylogger?


i don't see how that's illegal - it's only a crime if you install it on somebody's computer to steal their information. knives aren't illegal.


Yes, it's not literally illegal, otherwise Microsoft would be in even more trouble. I just thought it was amusing.

(but also, carrying sensibly sized knife is illegal where I live)
