Comment on Microsoft's Notepad Got Pwned (They Added AI To It, So...)
khapyman@sopuli.xyz 8 hours agoThat’s pretty much the problem. You know how to work around the issue. I know how to work around the issue. Institutional knowledge doesn’t and just opens the application just like they’ve always done. I resolved this one by associating .csv files with Notepad++ company wide. Now this is a mandated change so they’ll grumble and get on track.
The real issue I have with all this is changing data without consent. It’s like the new Notepad is malware all by itself, doesn’t even need remote exploits.
And hello fellow Linux user :)
