Looks like business world is finally waking up to what weโve know for a long time: many companies are astroturfing the job market with fake job openings.
Well friends, it finally happened. A VPN provider finally reached out to wag some money in my face to promote their service here. It seems a bit alarming that running a VPN service is apparently so profitable that providers are able to spend all this money on advertising (seems like half of podcasts have VPN sponsors and the other half are sponsored by square space)
I still own guardllama.io so maybe I need to set up my own VPN service under that name ๐
Oof. I have to make some changes to infosec.exchange and related services - I just got a massive bill from Fastly. Iโm hoping itโs a mistake, but I canโt afford to risk it not being a mistake so will be working to reroute traffic through a server in Hetzner.
For $reasons, I had 5 24 packs of coke cans to give out for Halloween. In my 6 decades Halloween, I donโt think Iโve ever seen kids that excited. One ran down the street screaming โI GOT CAFFEINE!โ
Yeah, that was probably ill advised, but it was not as bad as those Nickleback CDs
There have been a deeply disappointing number of mastodon account takeovers in the past few weeks used to spam out malicious links in the guise of porn. Iโm guessing most or all are abandon accounts, so the owner doesnโt even realize.
Please please please enable two factor authentication on your mastodon accounts regardless of which instance you are on or how sensitive or not you think the stuff you post is.
