Title: NSA hacking tools released
Post by: dlots on April 10, 2017, 08:18:23 AM
News media doesn't seem to be covering it but the group that grabbed all/alot of the NSA's  hacking tools released them last night it seems.

Be ready for big hot fixes.

Just waiting for the vendor announcements identifying holes in all versions of everything.

I can't believe no one is covering it
It's not on CNN/Fox/The Guardian/NYtimes/MSNBC

None of the major news outlets.

I was reading somewhere that a lot of these tools are patched.

My guess is there's too much math involved. That, or they don't want to be publicizing this kind of info.
