Remember this?

Recent revelations have put this story in a different perspective, IMO.

What say you?

What it caused me to think, was that this was a great way for the FBI to get us to download an access point or tool.

There are plenty of scanning tools out there to see if you’re affected. If you have a machine that’s newer than a few years old, you’re not likely to be affected.

My first though back then was it was a great way for the FBI to scan info from people’s computer.

I think the FBI and NSA can do their ‘magic’ without our help... Big Brother’s stronger than you think...

Been getting a lot of calls from an Indian "Fix your PC" service lately. Me and my wife have a game going seeing how long we can keep the poor bastards on the line, without them realizing we sure aren't gonna give them access.

Right now I own the record with 22 minutes.

I say...if they are as good as they think they are, and this is legit, they would be sending an email saying “you are infected”.

Of course, it’s also a slick way to load a key logger...Let the target do it for you.

I’ll take my chances with the hackers.

And, BTW, to the NSA folks reading this... Pound Sand!

I am not going to that website to download anything.

In the event there’s access to someone’s computer.

Remember how the teacher got into the kids computers/camera and microphone. I have back ups that would let me know if I have a virus.
