The Future of Networking? Networking is not only linux. eBPF is linux-only. Everyone else uses the secure variant dTrace, which has even wide-spread user-space support. So you can trace across the kernel, processes and its extensions/scripts. For decades.
Future of Security? eBPF is insecure. User-accessible arrays in the kernel can never be secure. dTrace did not do that for a reason, it was already compromised with the spectre-like attacks, and the fixes were laughable at best to safe face.
Linux might be advised to do better (or is just NIH?), but advertising Worse as Better was fashionable in the 80ies only.
