  It edits the iso (making it non-standard) to run on not-anymore-supported hardware.

    I know. What’s wrong with that?

      Not sure, but I understood that comment to mean “it would be worth getting angry against YouTube if the videos they removed were about rufus”, not that rufus itself is wrong.

      From Microsoft’s POV, it probally breaks the ToS.

        Oh yeah, I temporarily forgot the priority for laws in The US (from least to greatest):

        • Local law
        • state law
        • HOA agreements
        • NIMBY pet peeves
        • federal law
        • The Constitution
        • corporate terms of service
        • whatever trump posts on Truth Social, so long as its in all caps

    I used Ghost Spectre once and it was great, but was scared off it by frequent mentions online of other security flaws with prebuilt ISOs, the same potential risks as any closed-source and unregulated software. I never saw issues, just got fearmongered out of it
