In other words, Baidu are currently sitting on a treasure trove of keys and passwords.
- Kalium 10y agoPossibly not, Baidu and CloudFlare have a well-documented long-term partnership.
- snaky 10y agoMaybe there's much more to worry about Baidu's particular not-so-well documented, but longer-term partnerships.
- Kalium 10y agoOh, absolutely. Baidu's relationship with their host nation should be a source of concern for us all. I've heard some interesting and unusual stories. But they're probably aware of this issue and know enough to go looking to purge their caches.
- seesomesense 10y agoOr Baidu know enough to not purge their caches. Think of the amount of tangible gratitude that their host nation would show them for access to some potentially tasty information....
- etherealG 10y agoSwap baidu for google or microsoft in that sentence and it still has the same problems. Every government 3 letter agency has a vested interest in the secrets.
- gonzo 10y agoThey're not all 3 letters. (e.g. GHCQ, ASIO, CSIS, DGSI, etc.)
- deftturtle 10y agoIt's an expression
- AndrewKemendo 10y agoWhether you believe it or not, there is actually a tangible difference between the relationships US corporations have with the USG vs other nations and their corporate entities.
- lmm 10y agoWell, purge their public cache, after taking a private dump and supplying it to those who would find value in such a thing.
- bogomipz 10y ago>"I've heard some interesting and unusual stories." Do you care to share or elaborate on this?
- Kalium 10y agoThey're not my stories to share, I'm afraid.
