This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
And you're trusting everything an article says about a virus that says there's no solution?
What's to stop a black hat buying this to steal identities?
What's to stop one of the coders from leaking it? Or a black hat leaking it?
What about someone targeting an incorrect target and by doing so it ends up in the hands of someone more nefarious?
Hackers and black markets do what they want.
Can't afford it? Steal it.
Actually I hope it gets leaked because that would mean it will gets fixed.
Also im pretty against state Trojans and such, but as long as it makes money.
And what's stopping someone from leaking it? It's not particularly illegal to sell exploits and leaking exploits owned by someone is illegal. Also they won't sell it for free and browser exploits are really expensive. I talking about at least half a million dollars.
There is no solution, because nobody except the ones who made it know how it works and its not public.
No ads. No trojan.
That doesn't fix the issue in the browser
