Comment on Nightmare Scenario
joshcodes@programming.dev 3 days agoNever attribute to malice what incompetence can explain, or however that goes. Except for YellowKey. That was obviously a backdoor to get into bitlocker encrypted drives for either higher-upper law enforcement or their intelligence agencies. No one has presented another explanation that makes sense.
It’s more that it adds to the statement that Microsoft are a marketing company that happens to market software. They’re more focused on profit and they benefit from there being less zero days in the media, so they do everything they can to not have cves flying around while also doing the least amount of work possible.
Whatever is dropped in July is going to be interesting though, it’s been very hyped up.
MSFT has a documented way of dealing with the NSA and others; NSA can request bugs go unpatched for a time window (possibly indefinitely) and Microslop just leaves it until it’s a problem or the window expires.
Yellow key and XML surprisingly blatant
XML also looks like a backdoor and from the did not patch description of some of the others likely more

It’s so sad that the Nazis wanted to give Jews a Zionist homeland but had made so many political enemies they couldn’t help them emigrate them anymore… And then those disease outbreaks in the holding camps, whew, that was some bad civil engineering. And when they installed the delousing showers they should really have fired the guy that made the delousing gas release valve dump too much into a closed space, but that’s the for of war for ya.
Malice exists, and people like making excuses for themselves. That quote, even in its original form, has never been good advice.

It’s advice worthy of consideration for interpersonal relationships.
At any level above that, though, you are completely correct.

If you take the Nazis to be incompetent rather than malicious, then you’re going to assume their officially published plan to make a Zionist homeland for Jews in Madagascar was made in good faith, and the timing with the British naval blockade because of the invasion of Poland was unfortunate happenstance.

Well i take Rademacher to be incompetent. But not rest, those probably malicious. Also even madagascar very harsh and probably kill an lot of jew, which they say themself.
But i disagree that plan was to make zionist homeland. It was more exile. Homeland imply have a home. This absolutely not a home.
