“What else could be hacked”
It’s not a question of what my friend, but when.
Nothing was ever safe. -
There might even be another iot 'incident' incoming: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2017/...

@theCalcaholic Well I am not afraid of a ddos nor do I have any IOT (thankfully). But its just great to see that nothing was learned out of mirai and the little sentence "a few consumer wired/wireless routers listed here" makes it even more fun, can't wait for major services to drop once again, maybe this time they get the entire cloudflare network down? just fucking great.
-
@JoshBent What are you afraid of then? :P
Because I don't think we've ever seen more worrisome attacks than Mirai which also affect basically everyone who uses the internet.
The next attack could put down a countrie's electricity management. Any critical infrastructure is a worthwhile target. -
@theCalcaholic A vps just getting ddosed vs being taken over is a difference imho, but yeah the electricity/water/isp networks getting deleted is worrysome too.

My fucking router didn't yet get patched, my fucking phone is outdated and I can't change to my patched one because devrant just shits the bed in extended desktop mode. Windows 8.1 loses support in 3 months, rendering my last chance of using it on my surface pro done, making me use windows 10 with its fucking shit ass not optimized tablet interface. I have just fucking constant paranoia what else could be hacked tomorrow, nothing is fucking safe anymore for fucks sake. I even went as far as implement 3 step auth and intrusion detection on my shitty ass VPS nodes, fucking give me a break you fucking assholes.
