This is completely incorrect.
Microsoft do not concern themselves with what SMB versions Samba supports when considering maintenance. At all.
As it should be IMHO. We match current versions of Windows and only keep SMB1 around in an "off-by-default" state for customers who can't or won't update old Windows / DOS clients.
Just to add, for this reason I'm only helping out with the C coding, not leading the effort
It's a fair cop
Yeah, it's important for customers though.
Europe is not "forcing" Apple to do anything. Apple is not the victim of an Orwellian government shoving committee-formed standards and practices on a forign corporation. Soldiers aren't arriving at Apple manufacturing facilities with boxes of USB-C ports and shouting at workers in German to install these or else.
Europe is "requiring" every cell phone manufacturer to comply with a universal charging standard in order to sell phones in Europe. This is no different from Europe requiring Apple to comply with European radio transmission laws or to manufacture phones for ROHS compliance to prevent mercury from entering landfills.
Apple is not "forced" to do anything, they could shrug and withdraw from the European market. You're likely reading this and thinking, "why would they give up such a valuable market?" and you've come to the core of the issue. Apple profits from selling proprietary chargers and cables, and they continue to profit by changing those every couple years. Apple, almost single-handedly, created the need for this regulation.
This kind of ongoing inflammatory language is why Bloomberg isn't a respectable news agency.
From my (limited) understanding, I think dark matter would have to interact with *something* other than gravity, or else it would be massless and hence go flying at the speed of light and be unable to clump together in galaxies. That something could be (hopefully) the Higgs but I guess it could also be some kind of "fifth force" that doesn't interact with normal matter, in which case we're still going to have a hard time detecting it.
No, you can't downgrade SMB3.1.1 to any lower protocol with a MITM attack. That was one of the fixes in SMB3.1.1.
Google "Pre-authentication integrity in SMB 3.1.1"
SMB3 can't be downgraded or compromised by dictionary attack.
SMB3 actually *is* safer, due to the cryptographic protection meaning you can't MITM downgrade it.
I tell them to turn to the study of mathematics, for it is only there that they might escape the lusts of the flesh. -- Thomas Mann, "The Magic Mountain"
