meh.
This is almost certainly an instance of "a GUI interface using Visual Basic to track an IP Address" (IOW, a vast simplification written or edited by someone who doesn't really understand the field) rather than a planned attack on open source.
- cheez 14y agoYep, the leap of logic is pretty straight forward. "Open source means anyone can contribute? HOLY SHIT THAT MEANS THEY CAN CONTRIBUTE A VIRUS"
- gee_totes 14y agoI always thought "a GUI interface using Visual Basic" was paid product placement.
- georgemcbay 14y agoYeah Microsoft is dying to get Visual Basic's name in front of all those mainstream primetime television viewers so that when they reach for a programming language to implement criminal tracking software, they'll reach for VB. Sounds legit.
