Mandem got knives though

How did he get enough hearts to pull it from the stone though 🤔

Hope these cunts get locked up but they won’t, the laws dont seem to apply when you are that rich unfortunately. I wonder which politician they have donated to.

Scary stuff 😳

Incredible that we can still receive the signal after all this time over such a vast distance. I wish we made our current devices with such longevity in mind 😉😄

Idiots with nothing better to do.

Sad to hear, I wish him and his family the best.

Horrific, my condolences to the family.

You’re wholesome OP 🤗

He will privatize everything or try to

Kdeconnect works great too if you are using linux and android

And the US will bail them out as usual and bomb the shit out of the places while the arms companies make bank

They want to ban tiktok so they can control the narrative. Facebook and Instagram push the us narrative. So either ban them all or none of them. I trust China as much as I trust the US which is not at all.

And no one is surprised.

I’m curious to know about the distro maintainers that were running bleeding edge with this exploit present. How do we know the bad actors didn’t compromise their systems in the interim ?

The potential of this would have been catastrophic had it made its way into the stable versions, they could have for example accessed the build server for tor or tails or signal and targeted the build processes . not to mention banks and governments and who knows what else… Scary.

I’m hoping things change and we start looking at improving processes in the whole chain. I’d be interested to see discussions in this area.

I think the fact they targeted this package means that other similar packages will be attacked. A good first step would be identifying those packages used by many projects and with one or very few devs even more so if it has root access. More Devs means chances of scrutiny so they would likely go for packages with one or few devs to improve the odds of success.

I also think there needs to be an audit of every package shipped in the distros. A huge undertaking , perhaps it can be crowdsourced and the big companies FAAGMN etc should heavily step up here and set up a fund for audits .

What do you think could be done to mitigate or prevent this in future ?

Yes

I’m not a fan of any corporation, so they can get fucked too I won’t buy sony hardware but if they port a game to steam I want I’ll get in on sale.

I support valve with purchases on steam as it supports linux. There was also the fact that sony took the linux install option away from the ps2 (or was it ps3) .

For me its Ubisoft, EA and Nintendo.

Personally I would only use discs for an extra possible backup just in case.

I doubt it, they need to leave the scene as part of the deal. Could they come along and do something anonymously , sure but I doubt its worth the risk to them.
