Facebook didn't even appear to court to defend itself. Is this some form of silent warning, and if FB continues to violate the regulation they will be shut down in Russia? It's unclear from the article, but it highlights LinkedIn

Weird question: Could Microsoft sue Amazon here for infringing on the DocumentDB name? I mean Microsoft's DocumentDB was among the first to even have such a MongoDB layer also) and that was like 3 years ago. Given that current Amazon l

I had the same observation (although I'd reconsider your wording, that's not very polite). It doesn't seem like a good choice in naming - especially because many of the Data Platform folks at Amazon (like their VP) came from

Microsoft was first with a MongoDB layer, like some 3 years ago I think. Nothing novel here from Amazon.

Yeah, most bothering to me are flights were there are some weird seat poles on the seat in front that prevent regular backpacks from fitting in the seat in front - I have had this a few times, it's very annoying having to put the backp

You can still get phished, and have your password be stolen. It just doesn't allow you to login in to the FIDO protected resource. Other endpoints might still work if they dont' require FIDO or you reuse the password.

The WebUSB angle is interesting - hadn't thought about that. I remember hearing about this during a Chaos Communication Congress talk last December. It only required one wrong click from a Chrome user to authorize exposure.

Not sure what you mean... PowerShell Console is one of the most modern and advanced consoles there is and it's from Microsoft (compared to old non object oriented and pipelined stuff like cmd here in the article) - but it's still

Not sure if this is very useful overall, but it could be a nice as "game" for teens so that they have semi-secret conversations in public that others can't follow.

Would be good to also highlight the other finders of some of these issues, but this view shows that Google Project Zero is a well executed PR machine taking away the focus of other security researchers. The title of this thread is similarly

Yeah, I agree the way Wall Street approaches this seemed rather defensive. They are trying to appear on top of things, while in reality still are not sure how to tackle bitcoin long term.

Discussion are commonly emotional, rather then rational - it's freedom, it's getting rid of banks, it's a scam, it's a secret project by the NSA, etc... and it's also politically charged topic, and everyone has an

Something like this could be a way to get finally rid of advertisements, and help finance free services in a novel new way if the CPU isn't over committed. I thought the same around crypto mining... Many people might prefer the resourc

Most likely way an APT compromises your service is via an infrastructure attack - e.g. having your service hacked via a phishing attack and then the APT pivots through the environment until they find the mighty AWS accounts. Server-less doe

Might depend on your social circle, some groups might use it more then others. I have seen them being used much more frequently (and way beyond ransomware scenarios). For instance Bitcoin debit cards (e.g Ten X) are quite common and for tho

This is neat - remember using QuickBasic back in the day. Fun times. I really wish Visual Basic would be open sourced from Microsoft, so the community would revive it. I still have fond memories programming with VB and the productivity it a
