All that stuff - bittorrent, soulseek, calibre etc - lives in a vm, with access to the host only via samba shares. I'll decide what you see and where you can write. Yes, it's great you download stuff. No, you can't write to the stuff I'm sharing. Yes, having a web-server serving up books to the outside world is great. No, you can't serve up anything from my filesystem to anyone who feels like it. When you can't (be b…
