Re:I switched to Linux after using Windows for 10 years

Indeed, Desktop-Linux doesn't offer much in terms of security.
APIs to restrict applications accessing your user data? Sandboxing for GUI applications? A secure GUI path, i.e., something where you can trust that this kind of window is not malicious software but your OS? Biometrics? (making non-techies into using some authentication at all)

"by definition" always depends on the definition. Tax laws, immigration, I'd say all our reality isn't updated to "people working remotely".
If you detach your job from your (real) environment, this introduces all kinds of issues. You don't pay the share to one of the societies you're embedded into, like taxes. You'd have to be registered as workforce - which you're not, if you're a tourist.

In the age of video conferences, this will also improve your appearance a lot. Soft, indirect light coming from behind the camera… you just build your own softbox.

Unpopular opinion: If you're a "digital nomad", you're not a tourist. You're working.
Re:Understanding operational 5G: a first measurement study

It depends on the frequency, not (mainly) the protocol used.
If you deploy 5G on the 2G or 3G bands, you get roughly the same coverage. The 5G speeds in these bands are limited, because the bands are limited.
