re: #112 Charles Johnson

I was actually making physical notes on paper for this one.

This really is a nightmare situation for anyone who deals with web servers. The worst Internet security hole I’ve ever seen, by far.

We can only hope it hasn’t been exploited during the past two years, but that’s probably unrealistic. I’m not worried about the NSA, I’m worried about the criminal hacking gangs in Russia and China who operate with tacit approval from their governments.

Already with Ukraine and Russia wee saw some internet battles. From hacks to twitterprop, if that’s a word. I don’t think we have seen how harsh that can get as in state sponsored attacks like what was done to Iran. Except aimed far less specifically. One would suppose a modern state could do things far beyond even the bigger smarter criminal gangs.
