lol fucking retards deserve it putting important shit on the internet who does that what the fuck.
What's happening?
It's.
> WHAT TO DO
This is why i browse the internet on a nintendo 3ds.
Install Gentoo
I'm not even memeing anymore
>not regularly saving backups to externals
retards
gentoo is a hobby OS
CentOS would be a much better choice
Amateur. I use the original PSP browser
is it really happening????????
>not so enough time
The hacker is a Japanese poster from Sup Forums
>Hack Mexico
>Make them pay for the wall
When will this happen?
probably fine if you don't open files from email and use proper browser security + don't browse unsafe sites to begin with
haven't had anti virus software since 2014ish and i'm good
Does is encrypt the users document folder or is it smart enough to look elsewhere on the computer?
>theguardian.com
yes and no a guy warned us the internet could go out for 24 hours this year, so im guessing this is false flag
So the NHS has been killed by some bitcoin ransomware?
My body does the engineering gigs for FedEx and goes to their sorting facilities. They are all out of commission now also
>2017
>still having a computer
Lol retards still only have computers because they think their Mozilla browser with muh ublock and Adblock can't get hacked when in reality they're the ones actually being hacked while the rest of the civilized world has moved on to iPads because there is literally no way to hack them and if they did Apple's suspicions would be raised and theyd release a patch within hours.
Stupid PC users get with the times.
do you need to disable all of them? or only smb1
also what updates should i avoid when updating my windows?
i assume the entire space available to the os it infects
it encrypts by file extension, hits pretty much every common extension, most I've seen for some reason skip over quickbooks files, but I'm guessing it's not long before they are added to the list as well.
Or make simple fixes on your own. Save $8200 and play video games
Why cant these assholes hack nelnet or aeservices and delete everyones student loan balance?
Do you not understand the consequences of that or are you just larping as a Bernout?
WE WUZ HACKERS N' SHIT.
Or don't illegally download torrents
What exactly would happen then? That wouldn't magically fix shit I'm pretty sure
Ransomware is going to be huge
Remember to always backup all your important pictures and docs to a USB drive
Not everyone was raised during the Limewire/Kazaa/dialup era, so a lot of these retards click freely thinking there are no repercussions
I have to Thinkpads. One for surfing the net, and the other for work and personal stuff that has the wifi removed.
If I'm going to install a new program, I test it on my wifi computer first and then transfer to the other one that has never been hooked up to the internet.
It spreads directly through ports that people usually don't have blocked.
>tfw computer is unplugged and laptop battery dead
>tfw browsing from muh ipad and completely safe
baka friends don't you know mac is the superior OS
Those dark yet exciting times
>Backing up the virus to your external
Yeah have fun with that.
I'm no economist, but i've seen an user run analysis of what would happen if many people defaulted on their student loan debt at the same time. Essentially they lend out many times more assets than they themselves own. So if the lenders lose the payback they are fucked, and everyone who invested in them are fucked too - this includes big banks. Since banks essentially operate with other people's money, this would ultimately cause a recession, and hyperinflation when the country attempts to repay its debt by printing more money.
I'm sure anons with better knowledge than me could supplement, but that is the bare bones of it.
If your computer is unpatched and is connected to a network with other infected computers, the infection can spread to your computer with no interaction on your part. That's what's new and different with this malware vs. other ransomware.
If you've installed patch MS17-010, which was part of the March Windows Update package, you can't get infected via the network. You'd have to click on an email attachment or something in that case.
do you guys remember when that virus was spreading through people linking it on Sup Forums? some remote access thingy, lostboy
same thing, literally just retards clicking shit
AND MEXICO IS GOING TO PAY FOR THE WALL.
Oh fuck I just updated my windows.
wcrypt in green, this is from about 5-10 minutes of recent infections
Looks like china is badly hit, and mexico literally has some sort of cyberAIDS right now
The government deserves 100% default on fedral student loans.
still not safe
Nothing would happen. Economics and money are just Jewish inventions to scare and control the goyim.
Nah. Fuck liberal college kiddie, stay in debt for the rest of your life faggot
We need El president web search history
Chekt n rekt
you know, when you plug a usb into a computer, youre plugging it into every computer that computer has been plugged into. and i guess the internet is just a free for all orgy
>he doesn't realize what defaulting on students loans will do to the US economy
rly maektds mr thunk
Because you are worthless and they're not college students. They're the people you yuppie faggots make fun of and look down your noses at.
Nothing, go back to sleep.

if you think this will help people in the long run, you're wrong. it's like wanting someone to pay your electric bill and being willing to let the building burn down to do it
well according to Sup Forums the threat is over. anyway i already blocked some ports disabled that shit and now im updating the security patches. all of you should do the same just in case.
Someone took the NSA tools and started hacking people left and right
my fucking sides, we're in a cyber-9/11 world now
it could be.
historically when something like this is released into the wild there is no "off" switch as it is no longer contained on a central shell.
it will keep going until nothing is left to infect or everything is patched.
>you can't take out the virus
Also strictly speaking this isn't a virus and doesn't infect files per se so no worries about backing things up to an external drive as long as the files remain unencrypted.
FUCK MY LIFE
FUCK WHOEVER IS BEHIND THIS
IS THIS FUNNY TO YOU? IS THIS A GAME?
I HAD IMPORTANT FILES ON THIS MACHINE
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
I guess it was too hard having a couple of backup offline drive in case something like this happened.
I guess it was too expensive to do that
BUILD FIREWALL
>literally no way to hack them
Please Kek let this be bait.
>not having common sense 2017 installed in your cranium
Shiggggy
Nice screencap from a "infected" machine. You were already called out on Sup Forums just go watch brown people fuck your women and leave
>Limewire
Ahh I remember "Steven Spielberg gets a hilarious prank phone call" virus In EVERY damn search.
...
>what is cryptolocker
learn what that is then stop spouting bullshit.
How do you disable Samba in the easiest possible way? Both of my parents are incompetent at computers but I want to tell them how
Why no "How to unrape sister" tab?
>ubuntu not affected
whites win again
>No mother will die in sleep tabs
>still using windows
>Not joining the OSX master race
LOLOLOLOLOL
Poor plebeians.
Are my memes safe, guys? I'm thinking of going offline until this passes.
So who and why is behind this? I remember some theories of a possible "digital 9/11" with you know what goal, restrict freedoms and surveillance, right now sounds like the perfect opportunity to spread awarness on "the dangers" of bitcoin.
>using a os using a jewish software package, a Finnish kernel,and a Mexican desktop environment
yes truly the white man won
>tfw infecting your computer with herpes
>the eternal blue strikes again
Very detailed story with information of its inner workings about the ransomware.
>Oh cool!
>Muh fav movie!
>1024x768!
>*download
>frick yeah, with my 56k dial up this will be downloaded while I go to bed and be ready by tomorrow evening!
Limewire and Kazaa were great. Also, people weren't complete fucking retards with their privacy online either. Having a MySpace was pretty far out there regarding letting it all hang out for the world to see.
>Cuckold port
>MLP
>Interracial Sex
>Join Antifa
Checks out faggot.
...
Looks like a pump and dump for bitcoin. This looks like the major event to start the collapse of fiat currency.
Fake News. Mexicans are the ones spreading the ransomware for the lulz.
Here's the lesson, kids. Don't open emails you're not sure about.
So do I just have to not be stupid and not click in retarded links or will I becone infected just by being connected to the internet
The fucking sense of entitlement, Jesus Christ. Participation trophies were a mistake.
...
also I keep all of my important stuff on an ancient machine with a Phenom CPU that still runs pretty nicely.
The jews will never get back their porn.
a bit of both
latter will only happen if you're absurdly unlucky
Is this ransomware thing a false flag to get people to download a patch?
Yeah, now I'm going to be paranoid about this.
Is that really how people get infected with this? That's beyond pathetic
...
Trips of Truth
reminder that podesta was """"hacked"""" by an even dumber type of attack
>tfw you re forced to enable windows update for the first time in 4 years.
fuck you NSA
>or will I becone infected just by being connected to the internet
You can become infected with ransomware if anyone in your network is stupid enough to open shady mails. It's why they are common in colleges and other places with public networks.
Just don't share your network with anyone retarded and avoid using public ones.
Yes, they click on links in emails. I know, shocking people still fall for that shit. This is a reminder that John Podesta fell for a phishing scheme as well, which resulted in Wikileaks dumping all of his emails.
