A Bunch of young, mostly male, underpaid, low-authority folks abuse their customers? Shocker. I mean, sure, we should expect better, but being surprised by this is naive. To the extent that you could once trust your sysadmin, those days are over, that culture is long gone. And even when that was a thing, there were still a bunch of creeps with root around.
This is why I fix my own machines, and replace phones when they break.
- haswell 4y ago> being surprised by this is naive I don't think surprise is the primary reaction here. If anything, this study is just confirming what has always seemed likely, but difficult to prove.
