This was one of the best things I’ve read on wired in a while. It’s a surprisingly excellent write up on the Mirai bot net and the events surrounding it. (The HN headline title is definitely more click bait than I’d like)
- majewsky 9y agoThe HN headline currently says: > The Mirai Botnet Was Part of a College Student Minecraft Scheme How is this clickbait? All I can see is a summary of what happened. When people say "clickbait", I expect something like: > Three Boys Sucked At Minecraft. You Won't Believe What Happened Next!
