The double-edged sword of privatisation is poised to cut deep into the heart of a failing South African state
  • If the government did their job this wouldn't be a problem. The countries money is constantly stolen at the highest levels, nepotism benefits the same powerful circle and service delivery pays the price. Our previous president was convicted and has rape charges against him. Our current president was found to have millions hiding in his couch. Our post office has failed. Our police are mostly failed. Nobody with enough money wants to use public hospitals when you have cockroaches crawling on you at night and negligent nurses without any basic supplies like bandages and painkillers. Our city mayors are convicted and then get given new government jobs somewhere else. Our power has failed.

    And you complain that private industry is filling these gaps? This country would lose all its investors and high level employees if they couldn't have services to match their wealth level. We already have the government trying to take over the private healthcare industry instead of fixing their own bullshit system.

  • I don't hold it against them. They have their hands full at the moment with DDOS attacks. The admins are barely able to keep the place running. The beauty of federation is that we can pick and choose where to sail from.

    How is pirating software a thing?
  • Unfortunately the machines that get infected are not fully controlled by us but they get networking and internet from us (space rental in the building), so we isolate them as much as possible and we black hole all the bad traffic on the router level.

    Our machines all have EDR and strict security policies. Not much gets past that.

  • How is pirating software a thing?
  • We are seeing on our corporate network lots of browser hikackers that connect to c&c and are used in botnet DDOS as a service. Once you install x software it sets up a persistent service that keeps modding chrome.exe etc

    Firewalling the .exe that you installed does nothing to stop the calls to c&c
