I ain't no IT expert but what are some things a vulernable windows computer can do?

In general, a compromised system may be running any software the attacker might find useful, including, but not limited to:

  • keyloggers to find passwords that are in use in the company
  • software to copy sensitive files to a remote server
  • software to encrypt the system itself or (if the computer has access to other machines on the network) other computers
  • produce documents (think, mail) that purport to have been created by the user of the corrupted machine.

it probably wasn't very secure network if anyone can join and cause this. so instead of being misogynistic moron, you could spend some more time on improving your security.

So now it’s misogynistic to identify a girl on a picture or an unnamed person in an anecdote as “she”?

[-] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee -3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

no, it is misogynistic to draw a picture where she is the incompetent user causing problem and he is the brave security engineer whom she has to beg for forgiveness.

when it is in fact his shitty security that is root of the problem, because users will be users, no matter what gender. so it is the "hero" of this magnum opus who is really the incompetent one. do you understand how laughingly pathetic that is? bragging about your "secure network" when one user with windows can burn it to the ground?

he is the brave security engineer

You made that up. OP never said they were male.

she has to beg for forgiveness.

You made that up, too.

users will be users

They will be. And in this case the offending user appears to be female. They are allowed to touch computers these days, didn’t you know?

i do know, yes. does that piss you off? because you are investing lot of energy to defend stupid insulting behaviour. you are not really good at it, you are just trying to spin phrases taken out of context 180 degrees around hoping that you will hide the forest amongst the trees, but boy are you trying.

And in this case the offending user appears to be female.

yes, in this case the "offending user" is a woman. it wouldn't be misogyny otherwise, that just comes from the definition of the word.

OP never said they were male.

that's what we call understanding context. not a lot of women produces misogynistic attacks on other women.

she has to beg for forgiveness

You made that up, too.

really? so why is the title of the post "i didn't do anything"? that is something kids would say when they break a neighbour's window and are afraid of the consequences. does the woman in this case have to be afraid of the consequences from the op of unknown gender who can't protect his network and brags about it in dumb meme?

or maybe she didn't really do anything (which is even worse for the network admin's reputation, because it means it just caught on fire all by itself), but that is really not what the meme template suggests, is it?

oh, and for your future arguments, i suggest using the word woman. "female" just screams butthurt incel little too much ;)

[-] emergencyfood@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Sir this is a meme.

And this meme format has a girl, hence 'she'.

[-] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee -1 points 1 year ago

that doesn't change single word in my argument

[-] bleistift2@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Your argument is based on at least two shaky assumptions.
