23·1 year agoRead the thread in full, it’s much worse than The Verge makes it out to be - that was actually one of my contentions with this article when posting.
I don’t think this take is accurate at all. Her actions in that thread appear (to me) entirely as a result of her environment, and honestly there is no basis for the idea she is not of sound mind. The victim blaming is really offputting.
If they’re true, it’s more than likely this kind of abuse was happening throughout the organization and continued up until these allegations, so I’m glad she came out with them.

I run my own as well, feel free to make a post over in !selfhosted@lemmy.world if you have any issues!
The more I look at this, the more I doubt an AI was involved. Too many aspects of the clothing, body, etc are just way too consistent.

tl;dr: Customer Content encompasses all data originating from your machine sent to Zoom servers.
It never is by default. In fact, they got in a bit of a fiasco early on (before their current E2EE implementation) for using the term “end to end encrypted” after it was revealed they were simply referring to TLS.
41·1 year agoMaybe, it’s definitely a possibility. What’s weird is the original uploader (https://1337x.to/user/VitaminX/) remains unaffected and users were reporting this up to 3 days before it was taken down with very compelling evidence - the miner was barely hidden and only when it blew up on Reddit was any action taken.
Absolutely. It took a bit of digging, but I found an archive with some of the comments: https://web.archive.org/web/20230805153327/https://www.1337x.to/torrent/5753101/Baldurs-Gate-3-GOG-Digital-Deluxe-Edition-Multi13-Baldur-s/
It only goes up to yesterday, so some of the recent comments (especially from mods) are missing - but this should provide sufficient evidence. Mods’ combative and defensive comments from today were widely viewed (just look at Reddit), their authenticity is not under question. That being said, comments from Ex0duS5150 are present, proving mods were aware of the listing early on.
User comments provide proof that malware was uploaded (and 1337x mods themselves admitted it was malware in the Reddit response), yet VitaminX remains unaffected on the site: https://1337x.to/user/VitaminX/
Also, to be clear, there is no evidence one way or the other that 1337x mods took a share of the money - not what anyone here really cares about anyways. What’s being put under scrutiny is the fact that they defended a listing which was clearly malware only until it gained attention on Reddit and similar.
You replied to this comment:
I think there’s been comments calling out the malware that have been deleted, possibly by the admins. In addition the infected torrentes stayed up for a long while (not sure if they still are or not)
… with this reply:
Haven’t seen any evidence of either of those things though…
Can you see how I would misunderstand what you were talking about here?
They admit the listing existed in that statement, and there are easily accessible records of 1337x mods defending the listing prior to its deletion (such as the comment I had also provided in my post). You may need to re-read it?
I can provide additional sources if necessary.
See my reply to Whiskey Pickle for the evidence.

1337x mod response on Reddit, seemingly confirming the existence of the torrent: https://i.imgur.com/ij4CXIm.png
They appear to be implying that it was only checked, verified to be malware and deleted… after the listing was vigorously defended by mods and users complaining that it was malware were banned. Very odd.
EDIT: Found an archived copy of the listing before it was taken down by 1337x mods. Includes some comments (up to yesterday).

There are preserved comments from the 1337x mods, such as:
Ex0duS5150: the next user posting, “Trojan found” is getting the ban hammer. Stop it with the n00bishness. this torrent is not dirty if you dont know what your doing stop DLing torrents.
reply:
IGGGAMESCOM: @Ex0duS5150: thank you so much for this reassurance buddy, now I can breathe a sigh of relief instead of having to “fight” with those guys, lol.

Ya’ll are going through one of the worst situations I could imagine, but I’m confident you will figure it out and come out better for it. Keep your heads up. (P.S. - Sorry about the scat, lol)
