It hasn't, but Windows has had its fair share of keyloggers, RATs, and so on, and I think we can all agree that anti-virus software is an inherently flawed concept.
The only thing keeping those away from Linux was its market share. With npm malware on the rise, this is no longer enough of a protection.
