I don't believe that serving up malware is a legitimate business practice to make money.

It is very useful when a seller has to sell directly to other users. If the seller can obtain the cryptocurrency from the user, said seller knows that he/she has the funds and that they can never be taken away. Then the seller can conf

It seems to me like Comey is basically saying that the FBI does not believe that there is enough evidence to suggest that Clinton's intent was to violate the law. Therefore, regardless of the effects of her actions which might have had

It still baffles me that the media companies that so often complain, file lawsuits, and spend exorbitant amounts of money lobbying still cannot grasp the simple concept that people will pay for content that they can easily access. How can

The fact that these YouTubers are using their own site to make these insane videos where they win thousands of dollars is disgusting. All of the teenagers and children who watch them are spending their mothers' credit cards on these ba

Yeah that's one of the reasons it is so simple and easy to use a service like http://unreddit.com/ . Great suggestion.

To me this seems like an odd tactic to use as the manufacturer. Did the boss just pick some random employee and decide that one guy had to get the review taken down other wise he was fired? Also, I'm inclined to believe that this isn&#

Are people really surprised about this anymore? I can't say that I am. Google is a company which makes a lot of money off of their platforms. I expect them to be collecting data wherever and whenever they can. I see stories like this e

I've just started learning Elixir out of interest so I can't quite answer your question. However, I'd like to ask: what have you found to be difficult to do using the Elixir types such as tuples, list, keyword lists, and maps

Seems like this Guccifer 2.0 figure really is just in this for the fame and glory. No real hacker with a different agenda would reveal so much about him/herself (assuming the info is true). It puzzles me. It's almost as if this ne

This is getting ridiculous. Is this irrelevant blog post just here because of Medium? No disrespect to anyone involved with what seems like a terrible, tragic event but this is simply not the place for a post like this.

Your first point intrigues me. Could you possibly elaborate on how the "reprocessing" of food works and what that process entails?

I completely agree with you that in many situations like this where there is a direct democratic referendum, many do not know what what will be good for them. However, I am weary that having a small group of politicians tell the people what

I see where you are coming from. However, PayPal is involved in multiple lawsuits at the moment and previously so I would beg to differ that some of the things that they do are over the line: https://www.accountholdsettlement.com

Does Apple really think that people use Siri? Yes, limited voice control is useful in the car when you need to call someone. Other than that, I've never seen someone using Siri for anything other than screwing around. I think Amazon ha

Yes. They are a well known data leak source. LeakedSource is probably the most realiable one right now. There is always https://haveibeenpwned.com/ but they don't have anywhere near the amount of records places like Le

In my opinion, free speech only applies to the state as the state is not a product you can decide not to use such as Facebook and Twitter (from which you do not need free speech protection), that is the fundamental difference. People should

I definitely agree that the best use case for a VPN nowadays is local network security. When traveling to places like China, it's very common for there to be multiple people intercepting and meddling with public WiFi traffic. Therefore

I completely understand this move. It seems logical enough, and it's much like what Reddit has done/is doing banning certain hateful subreddits. Advertisers don't want to advertise with companies who are known to host hate-sp

This could work. There wouldn't be a need anymore for linking to the Git repo in an NPM package or similar. Maybe a special branch with a simple JSON file containing package data in the same repo as the main project.

First of all, this is extremely commonplace. You can go on Pastebin and find dumps like these easily at any given time. Secondly, the way these leaks work is that attackers take a large list of leaked credentials from a generic dump from a

Very interesting how the authors of this malware covered their tracks. I'd love to know how they gained access and infected the SWIFT systems in the first place, I think that is significant as well.
