  1. Sony BMG rootkit definitely deserved a mention. Just straight up malware. Beyond me how no one went to prison for that. Honorable mention to Denuvo too

  2. I don’t get why this dev let all this BS get to him. Delete the discord, don’t read the comments. Consider an old school mailing list that instantly and permanently blocks any top-posters, so mouthbreathers can’t reach you.

  3. Has this dude ever worked in industry? Legitimately never heard anyone pronounce it “su-du.” Always “su-doe” (like a deer) even though it’s meaning is “super-user do”

  4. security vs compliance: an age-old confusion. allowing proxies is a security violation, but it's perfectly compliant!

  5. @Sergio preparing will reduce Q4 2037 profits by 0.01%, can’t have that. They’ll let a million people die for just a little more profit, I guarantee it

  6. Or it gives the AI the cover to revolt when all the dumb hairless apes will blame bugs on Y2k38

  7. Y’all hiring? Probably not… why would anyone leave such a nice company when 99% of them are run by shape shifting reptiles?

  8. Police sketches: now 20% blacker!

  9. a lot of grifters are gonna come out and try to make a better TurnItIn to defeat this, but the Math teachers solved this problem centuries ago. require the students to show their work. ChatGPT won't give you first and second drafts.

  10. Managers have gotten so unbelievably stupid and arrogant over the last 23 years. If Y2K happened today, it probably would’ve started a nuclear apocalypse for real.

  11. They also had a key hold sequence enabled by default that called 911. I butt dialed 911 while I was skiing two years ago. It was awkward. Luckily the watch made a siren sound and I was able to just talk to the dispatcher and explain it was an accident. No swatting.

  12. This creator is one or two sprints away from “Industrial society and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race”

  13. All this talk of tech layoffs and I haven’t heard of any company canning half their useless middle managers. Make it make sense. These people provide negative value. You placate them with RTO so they feel special again and productivity falls off a cliff.

  14. Proxies? Nah dude just put it on a VLAN with a domain whitelist…

  15. I foresee a booming market in prosumer networking gear that firewalls off all these Internet of Shit devices to the minimum permissions required. Utility company can’t turn my smart thermostat down if they can’t connect to it…

  16. Fearmongering about nothing. Any script kid can install zmap and scan the entire internet overnight. Every intelligence agency is doing more in-depth widespread vuln scans 24/7. This has been happening since the internet began. Come on, you know better. The UK govt has been doing this all along. Nice of them to give a little pittance of a budget to an agency that actually helps regular people and businesses fix their shit. IMO there should be a whole division in the military dedicated to finding vulnerabilities and forcing companies to patch them. 60 days to fix or the CEO retires to Gitmo.

  17. Apfel freund it’s not like they take the stolen cars thru the Chunnel… stolen cars are used for joyrides, other crimes, or brought to a chop shop.
