Dude reuses a private key all over the place and then throws a fit when someone gets it and takes his money. This is like wanting a lock company to give you money when you bought a new house, didn't change the locks, and the previous owner walked in and took the money from under your mattress.

- vasqw 4y agoThat's like saying car companies are responsible to teach you how to drive safely.
- ls15 4y agoFord for example feels responsible for teaching drivers how to drive more safely: https://corporate.ford.com/articles/community/ford-driving-skills-for-life-safe-driving-tour.html https://corporate.ford.com/articles/community/ford-driving-s... Similarly, my bank provides information on best practices for avoiding phishing attacks.
- Semaphor 4y agoOnly tangentially related, but the practices of many banks have supported and enabled phishing attacks (5-10 years ago: crazy password policies, prevention of password managers), randomly special email addresses, random phone number verification sources.
