Two years ago I quit a company that was using a database (with sensitive user PII like social security numbers in the db) accessible via unencrypted TELNET. Not SSH, TELNET. I’m not fucking shitting you.
I worked there for one week and was like “fuuuuuuuuuuck this” and lied and said I had a better offer and tendered my resignation. I wasn’t part of the IT department and I wasn’t going to go down for an incompetent IT department.
I’ve seen POS systems in local burrito shops still running Windows 7… native, not a VM…
I saw a bottle return machine running Windows 98.
I worked in a company which ran everything down to MS-DOS
