here's some anecdotes about av: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13489100 quote:Except AV started out like how Carbon or Cylance did (lean, effective, buzzworthy, etc) and other popular applications started out. It was decades of feature creep, poor competition, out of control pricing, etc that killed the AV industry. quote:Windows 8/10 with the MS built-in protection or Linux + clamav quote:I have 150 ish machines on eset across a few different clients, obviously my experience with it has been very good over the years in all aspects. Eset don't offer the biggest margins but I stick with them because it doesn't cause support issues and I can count the number of infected eset machines I've had to deal with on one hand. quote:I have the impression that the AV business is some kind of mixture of scam and mafia. quote:Who writes all these viruses ? quote:If you need AV, consider F-secure. They do quality products and take security seriously. quote:Defender has the nasty habit of aggressively scanning new games I download off Steam. There are two occasions where it'll do it: quote:In principle, I agree with the article. quote:Any relevant information about Avast? I'm using their free version for 10 years and don't have any major complains. quote:While many AV companies are really bad, AV per say is still an extra layer of security. Telling people to remove a layer of security is bad advice. There's a problem though and if I knew how to solve it I'd be rich! quote:Most people forget the malware on hacked website. Browsers won't give you a warning. (OK. Chrome will show you a RED screen but not for all) They need not hack into your system. But they collected your login info, credit card. I even want to install one on my MacOS.

Subjunctive posted:So how is this the same as it's been then? it's the same since i'm pretty sure they'd do it if they wanted to do it in other words: flakeloaf posted:to the extent that the law can be flexed, for compelling reasons like "because we can" and "gently caress you" also, this fuels my paranoia nicely, and it feels good. my antivirus anecdote is that windows defender runs in the background automatically and users don't know it's av since it's windows and thus don't complain about av slowing their pc. probably might as well not exist, but it satisfies the antivirus requirement some people give so i'll take it e: oh, i also run clamav on mail gateways for the same reason and get a few mails every year about it catching this or that 10 year old infected .doc or troyan

my antivirus anecdote is sometimes it catches and quarantines ancient Trojans that people download on work machines that would have successfully run otherwise.

pretty sure the asterisks are the same count for all addresses to prevent disclosing length so presssec or presssecretary would both work

the asterisks correlate to the missing letters so it can't be presssecretary e:fb

CNN ran this a few days ago. http://money.cnn.com/2017/01/24/technology/trump-white-house-twitter-security/index.html quote:WauchulaGhost says he found the likely email associated with Melania Trump's handle within twenty minutes. He said the email associated with Vice President Mike Pence was easy to guess once you saw the redacted version: vi***************@gmail.com, which WauchulaGhost pieced together as vicepresident2017@gmail.com. It has since been changed, but the president and first lady's email addresses remain the same. (And the VP account still doesn't have the extra layer of security.)

its cute that you think the trump administration will last four years and also laughable that you think the following administration will change these policies the thing about surveillance policies is every government believes they are the only ones moral enough to have such power so no one ever walks them back
