So the article repeats, several times, “waymo relies on remote operators”. I don’t think the author knows what “self-driving” means.

Yahoo search is just reskinned Bing, if that matters to you.
Possible? Yes. Likely? Not at all.
To perform a zero knowledge proof, you’d have to have structured data to support the claim, which most whistleblowers would not have. If a whistleblower already had the hard evidence in hand, e.g., serial numbers and timestamps, they could have just provided those anonymously, and someone could follow up. The problem is, you can’t always get a copy of the hard evidence without revealing your intent to the employer, or at least, other employees.
Presumably most whistleblowers are making unsubstantiated claims that something happened, or maybe with light evidence. Based on who they are, a journalist or investigator may then elect to follow up and dig up the hard evidence to support the claim. This requires revealing your name and position/relationship to at least one person. Rarely, they would be willing to put themselves out there to provide an affidavit under oath, which itself is not enough to pursue criminal charges (though it could help build a case around intent or willful neglect, or help support a warrant or discovery).
It’s illegal, but not unheard of, to try to force journalists to reveal their sources, but the same protections are not universally in place if you reported a finding to a company’s internal affairs, for example. But unlike attorney-client privilege, or shield law protections, the risk in signing an affidavit is, as we’ve seen in recent US trials, that records will not stay sealed, and your name will be revealed to the defense and/or public.
As far as people I’d trust to not just make shit up, I’d say Librarian, aka, professional fucking researcher is high on the list.
I was beyond disappointed to see this. I have limited time to fire up my PC at home, so was looking forward to being able to finally play this game, on mobile, during travel.
That’s not true; the oligarchs control the present, and none of this negatively impacts them in any way. In fact, quite the opposite.
For what country?
In the US, at least, the long term average is 3.10%, including the post-1913 Great Depression and the Oil Crisis/Great Inflation of the 1970s. From 1990-2020, the average has been 2.2%, just slightly worse than the stated goal of current US economic policy, which is to maintain long term inflation at a rate of 2%.
Meaning, 3% beats inflation significantly more than half of the time, especially since 1990.
Cost of living, yes, and if you’re a solid performer, 3% is considered good. However, this is a 5% across the board, and a large increase to entry level.
Given they are a neutral country, as enshrined in their constitution, guess their airspace is free game (particularly if they are unable or unwilling to enforce it themselves).
I mean, yea? Income less operating expenses is profit, so if you can lower operating costs, without compromising the service, your bar to profitability is by definition lower. This is why it is called “right sizing”.
Fta:
“I want to be clear that we still have more than enough resources,” said Clancy. "We are still a reasonably sized organisation. We’re still going to be able to service your needs. We’re still going to be able to improve the product.
Why are you running a VPN? If you are simply shielding your internet activity from your ISP, Google won’t give a shit where you sign in from.
If you are browsing to shield your identity, you want to be fully disassociated with any non-secure browsing habits. If this is your use case, even if you are using discrete internet accounts, tracking cookies are common enough that, you would still be identifiable from your browser fingerprint. It all depends on what your risk factors are, and how much you want to spend to mitigate them.
That is exactly my thought reading the synopsis— this sounds exactly like the shitty isekai spin-off to SAO that never happened. Even the MC looks similar, just needs to be dual wielding to complete the look.
The biggest mistake users will make is thinking their data is safe JUST because they have a NAS or a RAID. It’s common parlance in Systems Administration that RAID is NOT backup.
To wit— not truly understanding RAID and how it relates to capacity, parity, and especially the time required to rebuild in failed disk situation. It is a crucial mistake to use RAID 5 with greater than 2TB disks, and even that is pushing it, but RAID 5 is at least in the zeitgeist.
There are also some outside concerns such as Drive batch dates and knowing to pre-purchase spare disks well in advance that may hamper recovery.
It is a reflection of an actual problem in Japanese society; with the low birthrate, it is fairly commonplace for adults to live with their parents until they are married, well into their late twenties or thirties.
Unfortunately, with so few ready career employment options available, many in this position remain in education or are underemployed for a comparatively long time, and around 3-5% are neither employed or in education.
We are seeing shades of the underemployment and “over”-education issues in the west, but in Japan, “living in your mother’s basement” is not a derogatory comment; it’s both expected and the norm.
Shouldn’t be this hard to find out the attack vector.

I’m sure if you’re running other insecure, public facing web servers with bad configs, the actor could exploit that too, but they didn’t provide any evidence of this happening in the wild (no threat group TTPs for initial access), so pure FUD to try to sell their security product.
Unfortunately, Ars mostly just restated verbatim what was provided by the security vendor Aqua Nautilus.
