Patch your stuff. Even if you're not concerned about being the victim, keeping your systems up to date prevents future infections from spreading to legacy systems that cannot be patched. Think of it as herd immunity.
🤦♂️
It's not a "conflict" it's an invasion and violation of several treaties.
They better be careful. If we've learned anything from Euromaidan is that it's all downhill from there.
I reiterate, Rogers does not accept responsibility for letting unauthorized individuals, in a different geolocation, place fraudulent orders for a $2000 item, on the victim's behalf, without additional verification. They blame the victim for their poor identity verification mechanisms. Beware.
...they can send the wrong one "back" (they provide the FedEx label) and Rogers will ship them the correct, free phone. Obviously after the phone is FedEx-ed to a mule, the only thing the victim gets is the bill from Rogers.
Additional details. After "being placed on hold" scammers return to "confirm success" and instruct to enter code that cancels call forwarding. They ship the phone to the victim's address, but they ship a Pro Max and then tell the victim that it was a mistake and will cost them $100/month or...
... request a callback from Rogers, which gets forwarded to the scammers, and ask the actual agent to order the latest iPhone. Rogers is then all too happy to charge the sales to pad their bottom line, and will not provide refunds. Warn your close ones.
Tell your elderly friends and relatives that if they get a call from Rogers telling them that they qualify for a free iPhone upgrade, that it's a scam. Especially if they ask them to enter *72 followed by a string of digits. Scammers are tricking the elderly into forwarding their calls, then...
If I grow my hair out, I look like Carrot Top ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The provider has announced that they will be changing the domain to cock.up in response to the incident.
We should bring back capes. If those stupid JNCO jeans can make a comeback, then the capes are definitely overdue.
So, Microsoft Copilot is absolutely useless for cybersecurity research. It immediately clams up and tells you it can't chat about things.
I don't understand all the hype behind the "5AM Club" book. It's the most forced, least substantial "personal development" book I've ever read. The whole book reads like a BuzzFeed post turned into an excuse for the author to expense his world travel. Putting it next to "Atomic Habits" is an insult.
Don't you just love how legislation works in modern democracy? In a recent Canadian bill about "road safety" there is an obscure little detail buried in a distracted driving clause... The detail? Mandatory sweeping use of AI powered cameras for monitoring the motorists. This is fine.
I created a separate email alias for a SANS conference back in 2018, I think, and it's still receiving vendor spam.
Apparently OpenAI has been court ordered to retain all chat logs, even deleted and temporary ones. When submitting anything to ChatGPT, picture what it will look like displayed in front of a courtroom without context 😬 arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...
Targeting military installations during a military conflict does not fit the definition of terrorism. Bombing schools and hospitals, on the other hand...
At this point breaking news would be that a company hasn't suffered any data breaches.
Amused by Microsoft killing WordPad only to gradually turn Notepad back into WordPad.
What is it called when LLM-written documentation is then picked by LLM for its explanations?
That's why I always add my left pinky to all biometric enrollments. Least likely finger to be damaged. Best backup option.
Insanity isn't just doing the same thing and expecting different results, it's doing things you know didn’t work multiple times in the past, but convincing yourself that this time it will be different.
If you thought happiness was hard to find, try finding a pair of aviator sunglasses without the brow bar. For some reason these just don't exist.
Should be an easy crime to solve. It says right there "stolen... by Josh Campbell and Kit Maher".
Claiming that going up 100km above the surface of earth is going into space, when the earth is about 13000km in diameter is silly. Take a highschool globe and imagine the rocket taking off from its surface... it would "fly up" about a 1/16 of an inch 🤣
