>wannacry uses backdoor
>wannacry can be circumvented with a backdoor

Backdoor here
Backdoor there

Why is wanna cry even a thing? Doesn't windows automatically update?

Windows is so insecure even the viruses can't run securely

>>60528881
Yes

But everyone is just "security updates? Boring! Let's just ignore that."

>>60528881

Except for those people who followed internet advice and reghacked their windaids to stop it automatically installing windaids10 which broke microshit's already broken patch bundles. Christ what a load of shit.

>>60528904
Kek'd

>>60528881
Not windows 8 and below

>>60528831
Two wrongs make a right, I guess.

>>60528831
Can I get an article link?

I haven't heard about this

>can be circumvented by a backdoor in windows crypto API
Generating a key on the compromised system was a mistake.

>>60528919
no its because microsoft has a habit of fucking everything up with updates so people turn them off entirely when given an option.

>>60528831
heh, watch how the media turns this into a "why having corporate backdoors in your personal computer is a good thing" argument

>>60530756
yea, a recent windows update made my laptop unusable so I had to use system restore to go back a version. I had an internet connection but somehow the windows update just completely kept me from going on the internet. Soon as it was backdated, it worked fine again.

>>60528984
or maybe the update just broke for them which isn't uncommon you fucking retard

>>60528831
You got a source for that?

>the backdoor has a backdoor
huh

>>60530305
But two left turns have you going backwards.

Fat neckbearded autist making up bullshit to slander Windows because he's jealous that Windows is a success while Loonix is hobby OS for neckbeards and poorshits.
Sad!

Windows is the computer equivalent of shartpants.

>>60528984
You mean 85% of /g/ before WannaCry hit, right?

How the fuck do people even get WannaCry?
Are people that dumb?

>>60537401

Dumbasses prefer windaids, so yes.

>>60533568
Which is the way we want to be going anyway, remember?

>>60537401
Apparently there are people who actually go around clicking on shady links, that's why ransomware survives as an industry. But apparently what makes this one special is that you can get infected without having to do anything, it just spreads over the local network once one computer is compromised.
