We are aware of the alleged AMD breach.

We love you all, and we appreciate you nerds notifying us, but we got way too many notifications. We got 50+ notifications about it. 😭

We haven't verified the data. We don't know if it's a legit breach or not. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Earlier this morning we began receiving notifications from starrdlux regarding some car dealerships in Atlanta, Georgia having 'computer outages'. Due to these problems, she was unable to have her car serviced.

Subsequently, car dealerships in Las Vegas, Nevada (opposite side of the United States) began reporting computer problems as well. Independent journalists began reporting online that it was a ransomware attack.

And now, just moments ago, BleepinComputer received confirmation that CDK Global, a car dealership SaaS, is in the midst of a 'cyber attack'. This 'cyber attack' which has not been confirmed to be a ransomware attack, has reportedly shutdown services related to CRM, payroll, financing, support and service, inventory, and back office operations.

tl;dr rumors, speculations, and gut feelings ended up being real.

Drama with YouTube and Firefox today.

YouTube is stuttering for Firefox users. The problem interestingly is not with Firefox, but the way YouTube delivers data.

tl;dr YouTube is being a bunch of jerks, Firefox has to fix it so users can view stuff.

Sorry, should have attached the article. Truthfully, we laughed at the post, screencapped it, and moved on.

Please stop hitting us with sticks.

We're collecting Xitter spam bots like Pokemon

Correction: our previous post about the compromise of the Los Angeles School Unified District may be a result of a compromise from Vice Society ransomware group in 2022. During that compromise from Vice Society we did not review the data, hence we cannot confirm if the data is new or old.

tl;dr may be recycled leak, could be new leak, we don't know but the data is still bad news.

Shoutout to AnyRun for the full-disclosure and being honest about the situation.

Today on Linus Tech Tips' WAN show mentions that him and his team purchased a vx-underground harddrive.

Subsequently, he calls us sketchy, states he doesn't know us, and he cannot recommend us to his followers.

😭😭😭😭😭

Note: he doesn't know us, we don't know him or his team. Our website is sketchy to non-malware people.

We don't see this as insulting. But, it's funny seeing him say this for liability sake – he doesn't want one of his followers detonating ransomware and then blaming him 😂😂

Companies when they discover cybersecurity isn't a buzzword, they've become a victim of ransomware, and it's causing damage on an international scale

Ransomware operators celebrating another healthcare facility being ransomed (they said it's the hospital's fault, not theirs)

We're still watching the CDK Global situation – some CDK Global customers submitted precautionary SEC 8-K forms. ZachXBT and other cryptocurrency nerds are discussing the theft of $54,000,000 from BtcTurk.

Please, no more chaos. We're busy this weekend 🙏

> asked to sponsor cybersecurity conference

We love you for thinking about us. But you're basically asking a homeless person for $10,000+. It could be the other way around, we should be asking you to sponsor us.
