Depends on the "Let's Play" quality. Most I've seen are just garbage. Only a handful of channels are actually playing these games without curse words or social commentary

DUPLICATE MODS

DUPLICATE

For every major story, there's always a TechCruch blogspam at the top of the index, sometimes with less votes than the actual sources they're duplicating.

Just add "sponsored" in front of it and get it over with.

I like it how Facebook doesn't mention anything in the WhatsApp changelog about this.

So basically every AV vendor denied getting hacked

No, you're right. Portal is effectively iframe without all the security protections.

Search results don't include private repos.

Wonder how many of those got hit.

Lots of security people will be up tonight reviewing logs.

You can say that again

Wasn't this article debunked as fake?

Hope the guy doesn't get an Upwork account now. He'll be really screwed then.

The article doesn't say, but is the teen black?

I see ArsTechnica did everything under its power not to link to the researcher's report. You can't hide blog spam from me, ArsTechnica editors!!!

The article links to a design document that clearly states that this is a new system. Modern journalism still way better than some random guy commenting on HN. qed

Yeah. As a minor. Isn't everyone given a pass for crimes committed at that age? Why the indictment then?

All of this smells like a prosecutor wanting a big case hit so he can advance his career.

All cyber-security firms said they never got hits for Kronos or UPAS-Kit.

The first Kronos detections came after his arrest. Go figure that! How do you charge someone for developing malware that never infected anyone?

I have a feeling this guilty plea is not actually a "guilty" plea, and more of "let's get it over with."

The guy has always called the charges "bullshit" and was asking for donations to keep up with legal costs.

This isn't how a legal system is supposed to work. You don't take a guilty plea because you run out of money.

To be fair, the report is authored by an US entity. I'm sure if they could have studied US operations without losing their funding they would have found similar deployments by US forces, albeit, I think not as widespread. The US has always seemed to have better tech, and GPS spoofing is cheap, from what the article states, which makes it ideal for the cash-bootstrapped Russian military.

I'm actually making a good living from writing other people's works, btw.

Article spends too much time FUDing "plant explosions" for my taste

You don't get to keep criminal proceeds unless you're a politician these days.

This is clickbait... yes, clickbait on BBC

The guy was a ransomware distributor who used malvertising campaigns to hijack traffic from all sort of sites, not just porn sites.

ok, this is funny

Not according to Trump

Geeh, I wonder why the Chinese hacked one of the biggest companies in the world.

Maybe for ... let's take a guess... trade secrets and IP?

Wouldn't mind that legislation heading over to Europe, tbh

Two million servers, according to Rapid7: https://blog.rapid7.com/2019/04/03/apache-http-server-privil...

March 28, according to the complaint

tl;dw: they got lazy at the end of the 70s and started copying their own hits over and over, putting out the same type of shows. Toy companies got involved and created their own toons, with a superior quality, and they were done after that. Cable also hit, and they couldn't keep up with the demand, so also lost additional market share.

I thought Waymo (Google cars) was the poster-child for self-driving cars
