Hi tech and unions. Are they worth it?

The halt to production at Jaguar Land Rover has been extended again as it grapples the impact of a cyber attack, with a trade union demanding a COVID-style furlough scheme for workers affected in the supply chain. . .

Sounds as if in the end they will just start shooting sabotage-specialist union leaders one-by-one until the problem goes away.

Their “technology center” (the place where they write the code for the in-car entertainment, and all the other electronic stuff) is in Portland. I applied several times and could never so much as get a callback.

It’s starting to look like that was a blessing. Or as Garth once sang “Sometimes I thank God, for unanswered prayers”.

Welcome to the new normal. Unless these hackers are found and dealt with this kind of behavior will never stop.

It’s starting to be worth it to go back to paper.

The line workers.

Do these people not understand the difference between an intranet system and an open Internet system?
The supply chain can be brought into an intranet system.
I'm not even an IT person and yet I know the difference between the two and the vulnerability of an open Internet system.
And then they're surprised when they get hacked.

Do they still make cars?

Was this really a “cyber attack?” Or is this just cover for their use of LUCAS computers in the engineering department? s/

[Organic Panic]

By cyber attack did they make that homo queer tranny advertisement.

Heh, heh, somebody found a back door into their private spaces. ;-)
