There was non-zero risk but it wasn’t remotely similar.

These machines dialed up bbs. No internet, no volumes of personal data like hd video and photos.

You didn’t have bank websites or online payment tools you could use people’s data to defraud.

My point is there no fitting the days of pc clones over today and having some direct comparison around “openness.”
