You get downmodded by actual mods because you are offtopic. What does your rant have to do with Tesla unveiling a new vehicle? Is Tesla running hosts files on their onboard computers now?
People don't need to sockpuppet to downmod you, you earn them yourself by being massively offtopic, stalking, posting things that make no sense, and posting agreeing with yourself. No one is on a crusade to downmod you.
I can understand that. There is quite a bit of difference between an SUV's trunk and a truck's bed. I can hose out the back of my truck, I'd like to see someone try that with an SUV.
Throwing rocks at police for the audacity of refusing you entry to their country is no way to make friends. The police response seems pretty tame in comparison; rocks can kill, teargas just forces people to move.
So in other words, you have nothing to say. So, I'd like to see the domain you managed and deployed your hosts file to that didn't have a DNS server at a fortune 100/500 company. But I expect instead, I will just get responses about how inferior I am while all along talking about how superior your solution is to anything else in the world, while still not understanding basic concepts like domains and DNS and permissions.
What provider charges massive overage fees nowadays? I am on Verizon, and it costs $10/GB for overage and underage. Do other providers smack you when you go over your data limit? Name and shame please, is it AT&T? I know Sprint and T-Mobile have unlimited plans available, so I can't see them making a big deal out of it, they just have crap networks where I live.
In a properly configured domain, the users shouldn't be able to edit your hosts file anyways, so why should the ease of editing it be any factor? DNS zones are much easier than writing a script or setting up a GPO to distribute a hosts file to a domain. Editing DNS is actually even easier than editing a hosts file anyways, so I'm not sure why you would say that the ease even matters.
DNS is required for Windows domains, so its resource usage is already a sunk cost, also, having one copy of the database vs hundreds or thousands means you are saving resources massively over a distributed copy of a hosts file.
You should tell Google about how much of a security problem running the 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 servers causes, I'm sure you are smarter than everyone there and can show them the error of their ways. But for those of us that live in the real world, we know that DNS is required to properly run the internet, and without it we wouldn't have the plethora of services we currently have on the internet.
What does exploitation of an individual router have to do with anything? Windows was exploited yesterday, so we shouldn't use computers anymore, they just aren't safe. I didn't recommend the router method anyways, that was MachineShedFred. But the exploitation of a single router doesn't change what he said, which is a valid way of blocking traffic going to or coming from sites. Since you are so concerned about the exploitation of a router and using that as an argument against using them, I am guessing you will discontinue use of every computer around you as they are very easily exploited.

Why would you open a command prompt to open powershell? Wouldn't it be easier to just open powershell directly?
Start - Programs - Accessories - Windows Powershell - Right click on Windows Powershell and select run as administrator.
But as you are the computer god, you already knew that, and were doing it the other way for security right?

What does this have to do with Uber?
Going offtopic to continue an argument you already lost is just sad.
What do you have against cows? Was your mother a cow?
Thanks, I needed a good laugh. It is amazing that this story hasn't attracted the evil that is APKs shitposting.

Because farmers need vehicles like that, and they make the money to be able to afford them. No one needs an Escalade.

At least don't make up lies that are so easily refuted by a simple Google search.

You mean besides the people he paid someone to kill?
Uber blatantly ignoring safety/insurance etc laws that seem to be pretty widely supported.
What laws? Uber insures the drivers while they carry a passenger. They also do background checks on all drivers, at least in the US.
What they don't do is pay for licensing as a cab, because they aren't the same thing as a cab.

Uber uses background checks in the US, not sure about other countries.

menials like YOU
YOU ARE HELPLESS
YOU are a rookie noob wannabe menial & "ne'er-do-well"
little "ne'er-do-well"
So, still all you can do is insult, while still not getting it. I see now what I am dealing with.
Used by thousands? lol
Perhaps you should peruse:

That is the definitive security guide. I'll bet nowhere in there it says to use a hosts file.
you rookie noob menial

There are things that no one can explain. Science doesn't have all the answers.
So God is Hari Seldon?
So in other words, you have no proof of your security training. It is good to hear that you admit to your lack of security knowledge.

It seems to fit.

Prove your security chops yourself. Where is your CISSP? Where is your CISM? GSEC? Security+? CEH?
I don't have this need for internet tough guy acts like you, I have said my experience, now prove yourself if it is so important to you.
