Are you kidding? That's not what Linux is "for" at all. Linux is an operating system, that can do anything, and has many advantages over Windows and Mac.
1. Faster. It's true. People even tested installing Linux on a Mac, and Linux was faster, on Mac's own hardware.
2. More security. You don't even need an anti-virus. Even better security than Mac.
3. Customisation. Windows and Mac are very limited to what they can look like, but for Linux, it's limitless.
4. Open Source. It's always better to be open source, because everyone can contribute. If there ever was a virus on Linux, it would be patched within the day.
I think you get the point.

With that open source, you can make it so you can hack into other people's internet.

By the way though, IPv4 address will run out in about 12-18 months, and maybe even before that! The IP Addresses will be switched over the IPv6 by all other companies and when the switch does arrive, anyone who port forwards won't be able to host! But Linux support is more important!"

What does that even have to do with anything?

What are you even talking about? You can hack into anyone's computer with any operating system with the right software. However, it is very hard to hack Linux.

If you mean, by introducing backdoors, then that would just as quickly be discovered and patched.
