the real issue on this is you don't know what you don't know. the IT directors/management may even have a security dept which is doing "work", but doesnt have talented enough folks who recognize the real risk and ad

it's probably crack-pot conspiracy theory, but you could definitely sense there were elements of our government who thought a pre-emptive strike to level russia/china in one swift move would be agreeable. Perhaps they thought they

I'm curious what the actual protocol was for defining the codes. Could it have been an accidental collision? depending on the codes, what is the probability all three matched? You have to wonder if there was some sort of covert op in p

Different problem. That session identifier is probably unique to each session. The complaint here is that the CID is always the same for you, and can be used to look up more information (your profile)

i am fairly certain RIRs do not allow this, though i know it was common practice for major hosting providers to buy up dinky/unprofitable companies which had larger legacy allocations purely for their address space.

Yes, on second thought, they probably confused secondary air injection ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_air_injection ) with EGR. It's very possible they were explaining secondary air, which doesn't

This is both brilliant and sick. A psychological virus which guilts you into spreading itself. Bonus points if it can identify you already plugged it into the specific machine and keep yelling until it finds a new parasitic host!

I see your point here. A principled person might refuse to answer the phone, or call back from the business phone, but that is fairly impractical I would admit. My only point here was it seems reasonable for the employer to ask for the wor

Full agree on the non-compete. However, the search of personal devices after you've conducted business seems legitimate to me. If they need to investigate the evidence to understand the exposure/whatever in the event a situation a
