Eugh. Is this a sponsored post on Ars or is there really this level of tone-deafness w.r.t. responsible unbiased journalism?
"Company A finds vulnerability in competitor's product. We recommend using Company A's product instead (despite there being other competitors)"
On a similar note, the original Project Zero reporter didn't actually bother to test this in Edge before reporting it. I assume this has since been positively confirmed in Edge or is it still just speculation?
- AxelValtysson 10y agoPersonally I don't think it's a sponsored post. If the author of the post didn't recommend something to workaround the issue, readers (especially non-technical one) might think there's no solution to the problem. Ideally the author should have mentioned about Firefox as well but he/she might not have used browsers other than Chrome, IE/Edge.
