I would agree if't s a non-EoL products. This, not so much.
A company should not be permitted to just declare something “EoL” if it is still in widespread usage. They made it, they support it as long as any customer still has it.
When I containerized MongoDB, Docker helpfully inserted an allow rule into iptables, opening up MongoDB to the world.
This is crazy. Your network should have been on a private IP address space behind a firewall running static NAT exposing only ports 80 and 443 on a routable IP address. This is network architecture 101.
AFAIK, the "defund the police" chant was supposed to be in response to American police forces buying army vehicles and gear. That is not a thing in Canada
In the UK they scream “don’t shoot” at unarmed police, whom they call “Feds”. It’s surreal, like they don’t even know what country they’re in.
The reason it cannot be discussed is because the us president decided to politicize the issue front and center. That inevitably forces the heavy hand censorship
Flip that around: hundreds of thousands died because it was more important for the media to attack Trump than to report truthfully. We weren’t even supposed to discuss HCQ for example, because Trump suggested it, despite all the mountains of scientific evidence about its effectiveness.
That doesn't sound like an unbiased removal of politics from the workplace to me. I think I would be out of the door, too.
Why, do you "assume bad intent" and "make unsubstantiated accusations"? Do you want to, or do you want to work with people that do? I don't think anyone who quits because those "behaviours are not tolerated" will be missed by their former colleagues.
When you are a consultant or contractor, you still have assess to kiss and jerks to take orders from. You actually have to work a lot harder at keeping the folks in charge happy. And worse, they can fire you in two weeks instead of 6 months
You can choose between the illusion of security or the illusion of freedom, that’s the choice
Although not a cyberattack it reminds me of the massive supply disruption and culling that occurred in the UK because of the mad cow disease
Still a form of information warfare attack, perpetuated by none other than Neil Ferguson, operating in plain sight. If he was a hacker he would be in prison but he does incalculable damage again and again and gets away Scot free every time!
my impression is that those threatened boycotts won't really cause much damage to companies
It still boggles my mind to see multi-billion dollar multinational companies cowering in terror from what is probably no more than a few dozen Twitter users in each case, none of whom were customers anyway, they just have too much time on their hands
