Same for the sysadmins/scripts that create C:\Temp on Windows, there is nothing temporary about that directory.

In both situations Okta and Cloudflare a generic or system account has been compromised. CloudFlare would have had to upload or provide a session tokens or secret to Okta's support system.

Windows XP on it's own, behind Windows Firewall and a router firewall not doing anything too controversial may be fine. Where the risks become higher is when you have many machines across the network. That one host would lower the overall security of everything else around limiting the ability to disable weak protocols.

Backwards compatibility with Windows/AD has always caused issues with Active Directory becoming such a juicy target in the way system-to-systems interacted.

What makes today's English so great is what has been borrowed and adapted from foreign languages. Everything adapts and grows with the cultures around them.

As someone who works within an operations team, the telemetry that is seen within MEM/365 is extremely useful for detecting issues and providing overall health of the environment.

While MS does not help itself with some of the more invasive tactics, some of the telemetry is super valuable in detecting issues with drivers, updates and many other things.

Even the episode of MS08-067 https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/57/ has some interest bits on early telemetry.

That would never happen because HK is already part of China, while it's political system differs than Mainland China - It's still effectively China. It has PLA garrisons all around HK.

Would highly recommended reading about Taiwan. Taiwan is what China should be but with the amount of manipulation and corruption i don't see it ever happening.
