We’ve known this was coming for a while now . . . but I suppose not everyone reads tech news.

There’s also a buried reference to using a several-years-patched gpac bug to gain root access before this thing can do most of its stealth stuff.

Basically, it needs your system to already have a known, unpatched RCE bug before it can get a foothold, and if you’ve got one of those you have problems that go way beyond stealth crypto miners stealing electricity.

The bubble will burst in a few years (it really should burst sooner, but too many people are trying to prop up their bad investments).

To put it another way, is this guy really any worse than Musk or any of the other too-wealthy wastes of oxygen rattling around?
