MyPy requests permission to write data to the hard drive. MyPy writes malicious payload to a file and then execs it. MyPy never wrote a damn thing to a socket, netcat did through a bash/ash shell. (Windows named pipes may be a little t

BPF amuses me greatly; Real-Mode/Ring0 are dead! Long live Real-mode/Ring0! Yes, yes. It's got some access control and security sugar sprinkled in but the idea of 'userland for everything!' is clearly wrong if eBPF

Your argument fails spectacularly. Mark Twain covers it better than I could: "In the space of one hundred and seventy-six years the Lower Mississippi has shortened itself two hundred and forty-two miles. That is an average of a trifle

Fix what? What's broken? The fact that they don't give a fuck what customers want? Doesn't seem to be a problem given their market position. If something is deeply broken, it's what allows them to thrive in spite of them

Why? All that assumes a home network is setup correctly, which is almost never the case. One huge use case would be all the shitty SOHO routers that don't/can't bridge wired and wireless networks so broadcast and high level

It probably happens all the time. We just realize its astronomically low and assume the easier to understand, safer explanation in our own incompetence instead and go back to saying we never see that sort of thing.

No. Most IQ tests top out around 130/160. IQ score isn't linear, its closer to logarithmic. It's designed specifically to keep 100 as the mean average so that <80 is retarded and >130 is genius.
