There is a clear reason - to make them uncomfortable. Nobody forced them to work there, and it is obvious to everyone what kind of future they are building there. If you exchange your soul for a good paycheck, this is just what you get. The

It's trivial (if you know what you are doing) to load kernel drivers from userspace by abusing windows bugs. If you trust a program to run in userspace, then it already has all the keys to the kingdom. Welcome to windows security.

kd-11 was fine, the criticisms is mostly directed at "the main dev" nekotekina. Go through the git history of the last 4~ years. It's not amazing or impressive by any stretch of the imagination.

To be honest, i think $3k per month is already pretty generous, considering the amount of work the lead dev does. I followed the project closely couple of years ago and even back then it obvious for anyone who studied the codebase, that nek

I didn't change my argument. "Just bruteforce the login page" is not a go-to method of the competent attacker. Why? Because it's trivial to stop it. You want simple concrete example of how to stop all that "unlimite

What do you mean by "which dimension"? Login attempts per second. How you do it? Depends, but basic answer is captcha. How do you make sure normal user are not affected? You monitor the login attempts and use the metadata, like ip

You're right. I don't know why it's still not a common knowledge that nobody bruteforces the login pages in this day and age. But I guess too many people, who have products to sell, benefit from the status quo, so things are

Well, it's hard to compete in the already established markets. But you have to, one way or another, usually by providing better value. Be it lower price, faster delivery or higher quality products. Otherwise, if there is no initiative

Basic solution would be for seller with low reputation to lower the price. Even if not a lot of buyers take the risk, lower price should eventually attract enough people to allow a legitimate seller to build the reputation.

But how would you protect the seller from the "evil buyer"? The one who receives the goods, but never releases the lock? Sure, he is not getting his money back, but the seller is not getting that money also.

Banks are not really necessary. Even by basic game theory, scamming your customers has long term negative value. Reputation is worth much more than money. We just have to design systems around it.

Easily solvable with something like proxy server on earth. Also i don't think it's smart to directly connect spaceship to the internet, so proxy should already be there in the original design.
