Well, this tells us that more privacy minded people with a background or interest in technology tend to be more present/engaging on Fediverse platforms. Not really surprising.
The twitter post is a reply, not even it’s own post.
But it has 10k impressions!!! which means that 9k bots scrolled past it and a couple of people had it loaded on their app.
I can’t imagine anything terrible or distopian happening from this.
on top of what has already happened from other privacy invasions? no i can’t see it either! back to work now, citizen.
I don’t understand the point the posts are trying to make. If an attacker can get at the SQL database, they must have remote access, i.e. the system is compromised somehow. What’s stopping them from getting at anything else? Why should we concerned about the database specifically?
More and more games are shipping with mega sus kernel level anti cheat which can (and does according to their EULA) take screenshots and files from your PC to make sure you “aren’t cheating”.
Valorant, for example, is made by riot, owned by tencent, owned by the Chinese government, and has a nasty kernel anti cheat in it.
So this means that with essentially no effort or changes the Chinese gov can just take this file and related screenshots of everything you do wrapped in a bow
And they 100% will do this.
A little rabid, but entirely likely.
