125 The 10,000 Download Celebration

125 The 10,000 Download Celebration

Dr. Mike joins us for the ten thousand download celebration!

  • The industry is realizing what Marc's been saying for years: Storing your passwords in your browser is an excellent way to hand them to bad guys.
  • Microsoft was apparently nostalgic for Y2K: This week's Outlook flaw was a Y2K22 bug that couldn't handle emails dated 2022!
  • MS Word spellchecker now attempts to make your writing more woke. Politics aside, why would we let the most incompetent organization ever dictate how we speak?
  • Culture peaked somewhere around 2008. Everything else since then has been worse.
  • Insecurity and peer pressure lead people to buy iPhones so their text messages show up in green. People are only buying it for this petty reason.
  • Apple, Verizon, Microsoft, and others have grown not by merit but by growth schemes.
  • Bad guys can hijack people's computers and harness their computing power. Norton saw this and said, "Hey, why don't we do this too!" The inside scoop on the Norton Crypto-mining Scandal.
  • How Middletown, OH fell to a ransomware scheme, which implies their IT staff doesn't have Computer Exorcist training.

If you know of any organization that would like to actually be protected from ransomware, send them to TheComputerExorcist.com !
