I’m guessing, per the article, that as long as you’re not exposing telnet/ssh directly, you should be ok? If you’re doing that already, why? I could see having some iot device that isn’t properly segmented from the rest of your lan already problematic, and something like this would be a concern.

I shouldn’t be on Linux, I don’t know anything about computers. This is why Windows is the safer bet.
