What the fuck are you quoting and what the fuck with the dates? 5 years is up. Oh, Wikipedia. Well, maybe this is what you should have quoted,
In January 2017, President Donald Trump designated Pai as FCC Chairman.[3][4] In March 2017, Trump announced that he would renominate Pai to serve another five-year term (remaining Chairman of the FCC).[5] Pai was confirmed by the U.S. Senate for an additional five-year term on October 2, 2017.[6] Before his appointment to the FCC, Pai held positions with the Department of Justice, the United States Senate, the FCC's Office of General Counsel, and Verizon Communications.
Jesus Christ, so many jobs is such little time? Reminds me of the Curb your Enthusiasm where everyone hands off their shitty assistant to some unsuspecting mark. Mitch McConnell you asshole!
Link? I've only found mention of a different hacker group, Hajime, who closed Mirai holes. I've only read brickerbot bricks.
Seriously, there's tons of shit that could have brought it offline without damage. He wanted to do this and would have found any reason (his is bullshit). I don't know why people are not assuming he's not financially benefiting. We keep hearing about malware makers after they're caught, they're in it for the money.
When hackers takeover a website, they generally deface it, which gets all the security attention required. They don't often delete the entire website.
And you'd rather pick the damaging solution instead of prevention and education?
Seriously, fucking logic with you people, as long as it wasn't your device, right?
The user is responsible for its security.
Fuck people, it's not new that you attach anything on a public IP, you are responsible for changing passwords and firewalling it.
If I was a manufacturer, I'd reject the RMA. Things like Mikrotik are sold to professional admins. They've done training and know this.
Educate the admins. Then it doesn't matter what a vendor does, the admin of the device and network is responsible.
Blaming the vendor for really bad admin is fucking dumb.
No, you fucking idiot. If you find a remote lock exploit in the car, you notify the vendor so they can fix it. You do responsible disclosure, which forces the fix. There's a whole fucking process for researchers to follow. Have you been asleep during the last few years where this happens all the time?
You don't just brick a car without first trying to fix the problem. People who don't do the responsible disclosure are assholes.
So change the password to the MAC address instead. Hard to get remotely, easy with physical access. User learns they fucked up when they go to login and default doesn't work, but it's still operational without permanent damage. Even rebooting it at a specific interval would draw attention. It could be the "4h20 reboot issue" that becomes googleable when it's noticed their devices go offline on this specific time.
There's lots of different things this asshole could have done without bricking them. He chose this. In court, the prosecution will present lots of alternative ways of educating the user and the jury will agree he's a cunt and he'll get decent prison time.
So if the companies are already increasing security efforts, how is this extra punishment still needed? Responsible reporting could have easily been done, it already has for years.
He wrote malware. The malware spread in criminal hands. He causes denial of service attacks. He's a cunt.
This is an admin fail problem. Clear as fucking day. There's many IoT devices intended for private use without outside access that doesn't need to spend millions developing a new product. Companies do need to keep selling these devices and there is demand, sometimes there is no replacement product or the company is out of business.
WinXP is no longer supported but is still needed for various things in various industries. You don't need to fuck around with spending time and effort changing shit to Windows 10 when you IP limit access or similar firewalling, especially if there is no upgrade path.
I worked for a company that forced changing password on first login. ZERO fucking people praised it, but MANY complained when they typo (it's double prompted so they're the same, but doesn't help if caps was on without them knowing), forget passwords, or employees just die. When something is deployed, of course you should change it and record the password safely. That's the fucking admin's job.
The botnet fuckers can learn of zero days and infect shitloads of devices regardless of SSH or changed passwords way before a patch can be distributed (scheduled downtime period, people sick, vacations, etc) even by the most responsible vendors.
In the end, you need firewall and limited remote access for anything reachable from the public. That's the fucking message, not just "change your passwords", which is not enough.
That's a stupid law. Although I know Australia started off as a criminal colony, I didn't think you inherently treat your fellow citizens as criminals right off the bat.
Gone are the days when you could leave house and car doors unlocked and not have to fear your shit being stolen.
How the fuck do you expect for a vendor to set unique passwords for the customer? Are you retarded?
The device is sold with a default login so that the operator can configure the device and set the password. It's up to the operator to limit access to it. That's ALWAYS been the case.
People bitch when they buy a device and it's not locked down, and others complain the vendor oversteps and belongs to the one who purchased it. You can't have both ways.
This is a network administration problem. Super obvious, sunshine. There's already many proper disclosures sent to ISP'S when open resolver DNS servers or SNMP with default community strings are found open. That's the responsible thing and leads to change and educated admins.
Damaging property and causing issues on property you don't own is clear as fucking day illegal and this prick will eventually get caught when he steps into the USA.
He's a cunt looking for the lulz.
Fuck you and your 'you deserve it because you didn't change protocols soon enough', rather than limiting access in the first place as the vendor expects the admin to fucking do.
The American banks have colluded on aluminum price fixing in the past. The suits got tossed, but I recall reading an analysis of the shell companies, the late orders, moving metals from one place to another and back, etc, it was pretty clear they were in the wrong and controlling pricing.
I was in an interview with Fortinet wireless dept over 2 years ago and something about security, NSA and Snowden came up. I forget the exact words, but one of the interviewers response was very sketchy where it sounded like he was inferring something hush hush. It was really strange and my takeaway was "sounds like backdoor".
No, that's fucking dumb. You test the shit out of it, fix bugs, and provide free updates without requiring support contracts. You rewrite it when you can't maintain it.
Rewriting it is only going to lead to feature mismatch and new bugs.
Your logic is very questionable.
What a cunt response. What the fuck do you do for a job that is so selfless? Are they rolling in dough or just trying to ensure they are viable?
Years ago, I talked my friend out of starting a tip jar type service because there was no money in it. He could rant pretty hard about quality content getting dropped and lost due to the emergence of the "always expect free" parasites. I'm quite sure the Patreon people feel the same way.
Helping people do things they love to do doesn't deserve that kind of response and fuck, you're an asshole. You go volunteer your time and energy and deal with fucktards like you.
It's not a money issue, it's a safety issue.
I don't frequent Tim Hortons near as much because a good portion of homeless and shit disturbers loiter there, inside and outside. Employees are regularly screamed at and intimidated. It's a fucking minimum wage job. I pity the workers. Bathroom cleaning, no fucking thanks.
A lady who works her small business a few blocks from the illegal homeless camp has lost significant business and all the homes around it are scared for their kids because of violence and needles.
We have been throwing tons of money at the problem. We're talking 5-6 figure per person in housing and support services per annum.
On further reading, I don't think I understand wtf you're talking about trespassers.
You don't make sense. Where the fuck does trespassing come in birth control? My best guess is that you don't know what birth control is.
Pro lifer thinks trespassing earns a death sentence.
Trespassing is so far fucking low in criminal law, but deserves death? Fuck, the biggest trespassers are probably teenagers.
Fuck off, you righteous cunt.

The boogey men do, he's just saying look at all of them.
Isn't there an iOS update to fix this shit? If there is, you're not being a good Apple.
I highly doubt he hasn't monetized this.

Wireless infrastructure should be banned? No Internet for you.
To be clear, if the user couldn't change password and were hardcoded, that is a valid vendor problem.

Bin Laden took credit. Maybe not initially, because he's a coward, but he did. No, it was not likely they'd turn him over.

I feel like you needed to include /sarcasm tag. People actually believe that because a stupid fucking politician sure does.
