Good job with the misleading HN title.
- Groxx 13y agoFor context, the full title is: "Cyber attack that sent 750k malicious emails traced to hacked refrigerator, TVs and home routers" And yes, "refrigerator" is (only known to be) singular.
- digisth 13y agoThere's an 80 character title limit on HN.
- bpicolo 13y agoThen reword it to fit. As is it's not even close to accurate.
- jdmichal 13y agoHN mods also enforce titles being the same as the original to reduce sensationalism and editorializing. Even if OP did reword it to fit, a mod would just change it back.
