[-] Pussydogger@lemmy.world 32 points 8 months ago

Every countries hacks each other! Welcome to life!

The USA even hacks it's so called allies or vassal countries!

[-] ZapBeebz_@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Every country tries to hack each other. Doesn't mean we should make it easy for them.

[-] Pussydogger@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

I guess you are not using windows, MacOS or Linux?

You are using openBSD in text mode?

[-] ZapBeebz_@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

I mean, similar to that argument, I'm not using Chinese software/hardware, so at least I'm doing something?

The only guarantee for privacy is to not be online at all, but that ship has sailed for all of us

Yeah, what you're doing is making it easy for US government to spy on you.

[-] Pussydogger@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Please check where your electronic device is made!

[-] ZapBeebz_@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Either South Korea or Vietnam! Not China, surprisingly!

[-] areyouevenreal@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

Why OpenBSD in particular? I am also curious what is wrong with Linux?

[-] Pussydogger@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

OpenBSD has the best security features!

Kind of hard to learn it

I don't want western countries outfitted with NSA/FBI/CIA infrastructure but here we are lol

Volt Typhoon

Is it worst than Israel's cyber groups, which the US supports?

[-] intelshill@lemmy.ca 13 points 8 months ago

"oh no! hackers learned how to hack in... public universities! The horror of PRC-sponsored hacking!"

[-] pntha@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

what a dumb comment. Volt Typhoon have been discovered in critical infrastructureā€”not universitiesā€”across the world using lotl techniques. they are a group not hacking for espionage but hacking to directly sabotage their targetsā€¦ i.e. shutting down electricity grids, telecommunications, water, etc.

also, they are not ā€œPRC-sponsoredā€, they are the PRC, more specifically the PLA.
