I think it’s just an excuse to try out their internet
kill switch. I don’t think they would just come out and say
it. They want everyone too make sure to update their systems
before Monday. Whats in the updates?
Don't think. You obviously have zero grasp of the mechanics involved here. This is nothing of the sort.
“I think it’s just an excuse to try out their internet
kill switch.”
No, this has nothing to do with a “kill switch”. Some people’s computers are infected with a virus that redirected them to the hackers’ server to resolve web addresses, so the hackers could redirect their web activity to pages other than the ones a user wanted to go to. After the government busted the hackers, they set up some DNS servers with those same IP addresses, so the infected machines would be able to access the internet normally. They are only turning off those servers, so the only people affected are those who still have this virus.
“They want everyone too make sure to update their systems

No, this isn’t about updates, it’s about getting the people who are infected with the virus to get it removed from their system, and get their internet settings fixed before these servers are taken down. Otherwise, those machines will not be able to access the internet. Physically, their internet connection is still running fine, but because of the changes that the virus made to their operating system, any time they try to access a web page, they will just get an error.
I will not click on any FBI or new gov site. I’ve contacted my ISP, my Malware and protection venues.
I’ll let them handle it.
That is my question, a little “tracking” bot so they can come “discuss” various opinions we have with us?
