Probably worth noting that some of them are not fictional companies, and Microsoft indeed registered them as legal entities!

I'm curious what the next big language iteration will bring. It's been a while that I got excited about a new language, last time was probably C#, but that's 20 years ago... Crazy, that there hasn't been any new language

Not exactly, it requires a lot more computational effort since it's not just guessing a number (salt, iterations and hash function are there to make this much harder). However, the example shows that seemingly impossible things are in

They typically arent removing, just making it not visible to a broad audience. In this case it became visible broadly, so this post is kind of the only choice they have to look somewhat independent. PR at its finest.

How would this compare to the old school taxi industry? Are there any numbers available that London publishes for comparison?

It seems that 43 out of 45000 drivers were able to drive illegally - it's bad, but not a horrific. Is there a time line available? Was this is in one year or overall since Uber's existance?

Publishing vulnerability details without informing the vendor is irresponsible.

I think this comment highlights a lack of understanding what responsible disclosure is about. It's there to reach the best possible tradeoffs to protect consumers and force a quick turnaround with fixes. Just publishing vulns, which th

Yeah, I'm wondering if this is all scrapped public data or a breach of some kind. Are land line phone numbers published in a directory (like a phone book) in USA?

Start with Google, they will need to figure out and know who the actual owner is and who paid for the resources to host it.

Seems like the ball is with Google at the moment, the exposed data is on their GCP servers. So, they can figure out next steps.

I am waiting for the day they kill Chromebook or Gsuites - its sometimes difficult to follow why they do terminate certain products. In this case it will hurt enterprises, a market Google desperately tries to enter...

The article clearly states "some", I think this comment is a bit defensive in that regard.

Nothing compares to Microsoft OneNote - I wish it would work with just regular file storage, rather then requiring OneDrive. It has all the best features, including client side encryption, while still enabling collaboration.

This sounds a bit too much like "Facebook invented the Internet". There were plenty of tools available for sharing and communicating in real time before Facebook existed. The actual innovation was the Internet and personal computi

You seem to confuse pay with "best place". Principal at Microsoft can make way more though (not working there, but know from Partner level folks there) - it's a very wide range, spawning 3 job levels.

Chrome books are definetly worse when it comes to tracking! It's sad that besides Linux, there arent that many options anymore... Imagine the tracking that happens on phone, compared to desktop.

A couple of years ago Birkenstock did the same - for them it was about quality control and ripoffs. It's interesting because any Birkenstock Amazon sells is basically an assumed fake one.

How machines are configured is very interesting, as adversaries make mistakes, and cam trigger detection for suspicious behavior. There is an entire security field that is concerned about what happens after a breach. Coinbase recently had a

Seems similar to SSH Agent Hijacking - mostly useful for red teaming only - because you need to compromise the Engineer/SRE/DevOps person first.
