Cornelius_Wangenheim@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•FTC launches probe of Microsoft over bundlingEnglish162·6 months agoI support most of what Lena Khan has done, but this is stupid. Cybersecurity features should be built into the base package of all cloud products. The fact that so many charge extra for them is and always has been bullshit. It’s like trying to sell a car but charging extra to include seat belts and air bags.
The complaint should be that they’re selling a product that is unsafe in its base offering.
Cornelius_Wangenheim@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Feds Warn SMS Authentication Is Unsafe After ‘Worst Hack in Our Nation’s History’English47·7 months agoNIST has been saying since 2016 not to use SMS for MFA. It’s always been horribly insecure.
Cornelius_Wangenheim@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•China bans exports to US of gallium, germanium, antimony in response to chip sanctionsEnglish101·7 months agoGermanium and gallium are not that rare. They’re produced as a byproduct of other types of mining (zinc, aluminum, coal, etc). China has a monopoly on them not because of any kind of special geology, but because they were willing to sell them below cost for decades.
It won’t take long for alternative sources to spin up and become available, especially because China has been threatening to do this for over a year.
