@GameboyRMH: "so far there's no hint that management cares about the Teams stats."

I totally believe you that management isn't using Teams to spy on their workers ;]

Explain like I'm five why encrypted msgs between end-users has to go through a central server.

Yet more malvertising from the Microsoft Zdnet :]

"Microsoft's 'cloud-powered' Chrome OS competitor inches closer"

"Microsoft debuts its second 'vertical cloud': Microsoft Cloud for Retail"

Explain like I'm five, why, if these aliens want to keep their existence secret, they would spend most of the time buzzing US airbases.

Lemme guess, someone opened a malicious attachment under ms Office.

I'm not in the loop, what exactly were their crimes. Provide examples.

"If made liable for posts flagged as defamatory or unlawful, mass-market platforms including Facebook and Twitter would likely switch to a policy of taking down those posts automatically"

Facebook, Twitter, Reddit etc. are already moderating our posts to promote their own, mostly woke agenda. The only effect of repealing Section 230 would be to impose political interference onto what is up-to-now a free for all. That's a price we should all be willing to pay free speech.

For fcuk sake Slashdot, please stop it with this neocon cyber BS. This isn't Faux News.

"KrebsOnSecurity looked at how a web of sites connected to conspiracy theory movements QAnon and 8chan were being kept online by DDoS-Guard, a dodgy Russian firm that also hosts the official site for the terrorist group Hamas. "

Insert free advert for MICROS~1 - Doh!

Seriously slashdot editors: Enough with the pseudo commie cyber BS

First rule of cyber security: don't outsource your computing infrastructure.

A puppet and a man in a mask, is the top TV show :o

ArchieBunker: "People are upset that Microsoft allowed users to install compromised software? How does Microsoft know what third party garbage your organization is installing? How about getting mad at the government for paying god knows how much for it in the first place?"

They wouldn't need this 'third party garbage', if the underlying Operating System knew the difference between OPEN and RUN.

Enough with this cyber BS

You should also remember that the state security apparatus spends most of the time spying on its own citizens.

@RandomUsername99: “I remember when Slashdot wasn't filled with a bunch of sycophants who would believe that exposing a large-scale, illegal, domestic and international surveillance program was a worthy goal even if it wasn't 100% completely free of governmental collateral damage. That the US Govt. and its allies were embarrassed by the revelation of their secretly breaking encryption on private communications is a very, very good thing. Without events like this, there's nothing to keep governments in check. Those fucking assholes work for us goddamnit, and Snowden was one of the best steps forward in holding them accountable to that.”
