Advertising is malware.
I caught the COVID from the Yellow Pages! It’s a Communist plot!
Yet more evidence that aggressive adblocking is cyber security.
“If you’re not willing to spread your computer’s asscheeks to let Israeli spyware into your home, you’re a pirate and I hate you.” - Linus Sebastian (probably)
“I’m sorry for the Israeli spyware comment I made earlier. It was insensitive, but they offered me $200 for it, what was I supposed to do? It was the right move and I stand by it.”
Is it necessary to click on the ad? Or is it enough to go to the web page where the ad is displayed?
I think the implication is zero-click exploit.
But if that’s the case it should be fairly simple to reverse engineer whichever exploit they’re using.
As usual, excellent stock photo enhancing the story here.
Adblocker, VPN /wireguard, Firewall and my little brother knows Linux! Ha! I’m safe!
I love Linux, but don’t assume you aren’t vulnerable to malware because you use it. There’s plenty of Linux malware these days, since so many servers run Linux.
