The branch main has been updated by bcr: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/doc/commit/?id=63d63c114e8992e455b8f2390f95bdc8c6a92282 commit 63d63c114e8992e455b8f2390f95bdc8c6a92282 Author: Benedict Reuschling <bcr@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2025-08-28 15:51:38 +0000 Commit: Benedict Reuschling <bcr@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2025-08-29 08:30:14 +0000 Avoid the use of "you" in the security chapter Rewrite sentences that contain 'you', which should be avoided according to the FDP Primer. The resulting sentences are easier to understand and often shorter. I did not change programlistings and other output as these are from programs, which need to be changed first (out of scope of this change).
