7 + 12 + 23 = 42 + 2 - 0 = 44 billion pissed up a wall by a man child.

when’s the last time musk actually faced consequence for any of the poo poo he’s done on the watch of various completely toothless in the face of billionaires government agencies i can’t get excited about him kicking the hornets nest when we know it’s empty and he’s just gonna get bored and go back to sticking his fingers in the sockets at twitter once he’s had enough ‘lol epic win sir’ from his sycophant squad and there’s been an official ruling that he maybe he should cut it out

I’m sure someone forgot to put the decimal places for cents and that should be $250. Lol, I hope that Twitter has just paid their whole Twitter Blue sub revenue to creators as a coding error.

gregday posted:https://twitter.com/arstechnica/status/1679516069327695872 all four of these IPs are linode/akamai addresses, a large and reputable cloud hosting company that surely would turn over the identities of the customers that used those IP addresses upon the receipt of valid legal process. would be very funny if the suit simply got tossed out for failure to state a claim or something before it even got to that point though. it's also trivial to distinguish traffic from data center networks vs. consumer/business internet connections ("eyeball networks"), see e.g. https://security.googleblog.com/2015/07/working-together-to-filter-automated.html for one group of online advertising companies that have been putting together a blocklist for years. you can already assume with pretty good confidence that signups from data center networks are gonna be fraudulent, with i guess weird exceptions like nerds running their own DIY VPNs in the cloud. but i'd find it hard to believe that pre-elon twitter wouldn't already have severely rate-limited signups and page views from data center IPs, just as a default, blanket security posture. so if this incident was kicked off by a handful of linode VMs this heavily implies that their pre-existing anti-abuse capabilities have severely degraded (speaking solely of technical "anti-abuse" not the contents of tweets lol). like maybe they just turned off all the poo poo that imported the latest data into their rate-limiter system or something. surely there were a bunch of specialized non-redundant workloads in that sacramento data center musk unplugged. also upon a close reading of the facts that they allege in their lawsuit quote:22. Recently, X Corp. identified particular IP addresses—including those belonging to Defendants—that were flooding Twitter’s sign-up page with automated requests. they never actually allege that the IP addresses scraped tweets, only that they sent large amounts of account signups, then they assume that those signups must have been because they wanted to scrape data (and not say clicking like on musk's tweets). maybe that's just a drafting mistake or maybe they just turned off all the logging that they would have needed to identify the scraping IPs (since log storage costs money). so maybe the signup logs are all they have. if so perhaps the people doing automated signups aren't the same people doing the scraping in which case this lawsuit is even funnier. anyway i'd bet that the global rate-limits and login wall that they threw up didn't have anything to do with stabilizing the site and the scrapers changed up their tactics once they realized the site was falling over in fact i'd bet that these scrapers had been scraping along at a consistent rate all the time and it was only around the time of the google cloud contract expiration that elon probably tried to remove a bunch of capacity from their services and found out, whoops, there's a thing called capacity planning that you could do if you hadn't deleted all your logs and metrics rather than just making poo poo up

Oh wow, who is your favorite character, Elon? “The erm, uh main character. The Doctor. He travels in a magical telephone booth. Sadly they made him into a woman recently so it’s woke now.”
