Please don't tell me what to do. Every one of your posts is just like the last ...you repeat yourself ad nauseum. You called my last post pitiful. Well guess what? I won't lose any sleep, considering the source.
More criminal activity...
Amazon-owned Twitch breached by hackers who reportedly leaked everything from creator payouts to an unannounced Amazon digital game store.
- The source code for Twitch and creator earnings numbers were reportedly included in the hack.
That's Google, the universal texting service, and Amazon all in today's news. Maybe it's time to start cutting Epik and Rob Monster a little slack.
I'd like to point this out as proof that it doesn't matter how good the security is or is not. Determined criminals will commit crimes.
I'm sure that Google and Amazon have world class security . If these hackers are out to get you they're going to get you.
For all of you spouting off about unsalted this and that... How many of you really understand what you're saying and not just parroting the few here that really do?
I think it's time that we get behind our industry and support the little guy. I remember when GoDaddy was run by Bob Parsons. It was actually not a bad company. You want to lose people like Rob Monster? Be prepared for lack of innovation and the highest possible prices. People like Rob give back to our industry and force competition. You don't have to like him. But you don't need to resort to wishing ill on anyone or becoming an angry mob.
Were flaws exposed? Yup. But if you want to beat Epik to a bloody pulp, you have to be ready to judge all others just as harshly. Or be a hypocrite.
So what is the common denominator? Open your eyes. The real problem here are the hackers. If they can take down the safety of the Chrome browser, all your texting, and amazon, how does the little guy stand a chance?
I'm not saying to love Epik or Rob. Free will prevails. But support your industry and give them a Fighting Chance. They know where they've gone wrong now. Let them try to fix it.
As for communication google tried covering up their issues. The texting service waited
5 years to let it be known. Rob has issued statements which I am sure are in accordance to what he's being advised to do. I can't speak for him. But as open and sharing, even verbose as he is I'm sure he would love to let us all know what he's thinking and what's going on. My guess is he's acting on the advice of counsel. Just a guess
