- Comment on Privacy — why should I care 2 weeks ago:
…and this is how you keep people using mainstream services instead of FOSS / privacy respecting ones.
The actual answer is convenience and not wanting to make their life more difficult, which brings ignorance into it.
Not everyone is ready to flip their whole digital life upside down based on the privacy principles you and I care about - that’s why I too use the approach the parent commenter mentioned, and I’m also okay with people who just won’t make any switches, because while I don’t support it, I understand it.
- Comment on UnitedHealth updates data breach impact to 190 million people, nearly doubling previous estimate 2 months ago:
“The hackers gained initial access using a stolen account credential that lacked multi-factor authentication security, according to UnitedHealth.”
Absolutely unacceptable. I might be easier to forgive them if some zero day was used, but that’s so easily preventable.
That account presumably had some level of privileges, the policy should have been to enforce MFA, and if the account was inactive, disable it until the user needs it at which point set up MFA again.
