    Windows is so insecure that even malware encrypts the data for you.

    I believe that is the first time someone argued for the forced updates in Windows 10

    You can thank the NSA for this hack.

    I hope this guy will be in many more videos on this channel. I find the stuff he is talking about so fascinating.

    So the MalwareTech dude that he was talking about, he found the killswitch and then was hailed a hero. He lived in the UK and went to Las Vegas for a vacation and guess what? The FBI arrested him at the airport. It's because in his younger years when he was learning how to hack, he made a malware which he mistakenly sold to someone. The malware was then incorporated with Kronos which led to sensitive bank information to be leaked. He had trials and he wasn't allowed to leave the U.S. nor, was he allowed to legally work there for 18 months. He finally gave up and accepted his charges. On the day of his sentencing, the Judge let him go as he had done the world a huge favor by finding the killswitch and disabling WanaCry ransomware. A very interesting documentary, indeed! {also, when he was arrested, he was left on bail on a bond of $30k, his story got out in his country and the very second day, the community had paid it off completely!}

    Someone hacked the NSA and stole their backdoor exploits. Damn, those dudes must have a seriously large set of balls.

    I think failure to report a vulnerability like this should be a crime, but we all know NSA is outside of the law

    The problem with Microsofts update policy is they don't discern between security, driver and feature updates.

    How is it that my mac takes hours to encrypt my drive/files, but this thing does it in seconds?

    I expected to find out about the actual virus. He kinda only summed up the news from this weekend. Does this virus actually encrypt your files? How can you get rid of it? (I am not affected)
