4 days agoI have a particular feeling which I want ask you all.
In the last few years, I have seen that some new cyber security firm will come up with a new ‘novel’ security vulnerability, and media will give those ‘vulenrability’ huge coverage, but in the end in reality that vulenrability is just of academic interest, and without any real life implications?
There was a ‘logo fail’ vulnerability, then GitHub ‘leaking’ credentials (it was bad narrative built around a GitHub feature), and so many more.
All I see is fear mongering with sensationalised media coverage. Am I the only one feeling this way?
I genuinely appreciate the effort. I have a few comments.
