I don’t know what the fuck you do on the internet… Are you really trying to suggest people don’t get hacked like this? People have lost millions in crypto from shit like that. I know you don’t care about crypto or whatever, but it doesn’t make the situation less real…
Some people have things of value on their internet-connected devices. It’s just foolish to not stay up to date with security updates.
They click on things they shouldn’t. I already know I shouldn’t. The end.
Not just from letting the computer run.
Explain why I don’t have any of these problems with my oh-so vulnerable 12 year old Windows 7 laptop?
"People have lost millions in crypto from shit like that. "
Sources. Links. Explain how it happened. So you’re claiming people with Windows 7 computers also have millions in crypto?
What?
Browsing from a 12 year old laptop running Win7 … what’s the issue?
Malware. All the malware 🪲. That thing better be airgapped.
Please explain how malware would get on my laptop now in a way that it didn’t, oh, say, in the last 12 years?
Considering you stopped receiving security updates years ago, any kind of malware developed since then is going to have a field day with you.
That’s amazing, it’s had years to have its field day. Where is it, please?
You guys understand you have to actively install malware and viruses, right? It’s not like on TV with a skull and crossbones appearing on the monitor.
You’re just making yourself a target. People go after low-hanging fruit, and people who haven’t had security updates in a decade are top of the list.
Again, how will this happen? This is just technical illiteracy, my friend.
