News sites all over the internet are reporting that torrents are too blame for the wannacry spread.
Why arent we doing more to shut down torrent sites since they allow for the violation of copyright law a known gateway crime that leads to people becoming bigger criminals?
why are people torrenting on work/government computers then?
Nice try MPAA
Since normies don't torrent, how would they even get ransomware?
their not but experts are saying if a person used a torrent at home then their so dangerous they can follow the user to work, school, etc leaving many students open to expulsion for participating in international trafficking.

Go home pajeet wtf are you talking about
I don't remember 1s and 0s jumping out through the USB port and following me in the bathroom last time I torrented a TV show
>News sites all over the internet are reporting that torrents are too blame for the wannacry spread.
Source?
>torrents are to blame
>not teh weaponized exploit hack program or whatever the fuck made by the NSA that wikileaked
I was raped by a 1 before.
Never been the same since.
saw an RT video that said the NSA actually developed WannaCry, lots of misinformation out there
source?
Seriously WHAT THE FUCK
WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO TURN INTO ANOTHER SHITTY ATTEMPT TO TRICK ILLITERATES INTO REGULATING THE INTERNET BECAUSE "muh piracy, muh torrents"
FUCK THIS GAY EARTH
Reports are confirming that online cyber criminals who participate in the illegal sharing of copyrighted material are possibly to blame for the incident. Think about executives like Tim Rothman and how illegal file sharing affects his family and millions of others.
Itt: a lot of people die in car accidents, so lets ban cars.
>News sites all over the internet are reporting that torrents are too blame for the wannacry spread.
This is starting to sound more and more like a false flag.
>News sites all over the internet are reporting that torrents are too blame for the wannacry spread.
No, they arent
WHICH news sites?
FAKE NEWS
>News sites all over the internet
>MANY PEOPLE HAVE SAID
Piss off, Easy D.
Retarded user infected by ramsomware here.
I can prove what they said. Day before cyberattack left shit downloading through torrent, next day the beautiful virus had already encrypted all my information.
what were you torrenting? Because I've got like 400gb worth of torrents running right now.
CNN already ran a story about the dangers of torrents this weekend did anyone catch it? This is what many top security experts are reporting says Utah Senator Orin Hatch who is like the elliot ness in the war in online crime.
if you already have the files seeded then your fine, its anyone who connects who can be infected over the p2p connection, its what makes anyone who uses torrents a danger to society since nothing good comes out of downloading a movie when a hospital gets infected because some user downloaded a torrent then went to work or use their wifi now children are dying because some lowlife scum had to have a copy of Batman V superman
>download files onto one computer
>another computer is infected
Unless you are sharing a network connection with the hospital, I don't understand how this works.
We need to have a war on torrents. Torrenting a Linux distro will be a mandatory one-year bid because it's a slippery slope to illegality and enables cyber criminals to take down key infrastructure potentially. Torrenting copyrighted material will be 25 to life with no possibility of parole. Get the torrenters off the streets!
>been torrenting since 7 years
>using fake W7
>don't have this problem
Go away OP.
How soft on crime can you libtards get? What you are ignoring is the possibility that ones and zeros, ordinary household ones and zeros, can easily be arranged into dangerous viruses. A true patriot would support government regulation of numerals.
Just apply the fucking patch and you will be fine.
...
trips confirm if you use torrents your a child killer!!!! share this on social media and please upvote this post!!!!
>its anyone who connects who can be infected over the p2p connection
Can't send the SMB messages over any old connection sempai.
haha wow your so naive.
>torrent on you're home pc
>phone is connected to same wifi
>take phone to work and connect to their wifi
Since when were iOS and Android vectors for the ransomware?
Viruses that cross platforms are pretty rare. Considering it would have to infect your PC then infect your phone and then infect other PCs from the phone wirelessly.
You'd have to be one of those few people with a Windows phone.
>not running Linux
I mean... What did they expect would happen?
So this is the power of the MAFIAA?
What? The torrent follows you around like a fucking puppy?
Are you really retarded enough to believe this?
So why aren't employees of affected businesses reporting their home computers are affected too?
There is only one cause of this -- Microsoft leaving that fucking port open. Stop trying to turn this into something other than the fact that Windows is a shitty OS, created by a huge and discombobulated company that is a shell of its former self.
...
Normies don't torrent?
I think they do, well at least for tv series
cross platform spreading of viruses or ransomware is possible it just doesnt activate on the mobile devices essentially making them passive hosts in a way infecting any wifi they come into contact with which is why torrents are so dangerous due to the massive havoc they cause.
You still need a vulnerability on the mobile device in order to copy over your files. And you would need to have the malware active on the device in order for it to be copied off.
embedding decoding is triggered and activated passively spreading to any connected systems on a network in theory it can lie resident like stuxnet. This is why law enforcement agencies are getting huge budgets in the billions hopefully to track down international cyber criminals who are willing to break the law for an illegal mp3 song which could cause thousands to die in hospitals around the world.
Its not longer a matter of copyright law, what we are talking about are people who are an accomplice to murder at worst and at best manslaughter due to their global illegal activities in illicit file trafficking of copyrighted media.
>There is only one cause of this -- Microsoft leaving that fucking port open.
but they did this on purpose senpai.... hmmmm really makes ya think that this is all staged to get that anti copyright legislation passed....
And exactly how the infected would copy itself to the second network if it does not run on the phone?
Was the ransomware written in fucking Java?
Write once, run everywhere (tm)
not if it simply passes itself to others connected via the same network through port port vulnerabilities, no action is needed by the user to initiate this as seen.
right, but the program still needs to run on the mobile device to do that
How will they spin this new 9/11 to take away our civil liberties?
If torrents get blocked, people will just switch to I2P torrents. (I wish it was faster though).
>How will they spin this new 9/11 to take away our civil liberties?
Maybe this???
Noticing in alot of news stories and blogs popping up in the security community that their using the term illegal international trafficking of data similar to this law being passed to prevent illegal international trafficking of children which requires all citizens to install filters to monitor their online activities to insure their using the internet legally while blocking access to anything deemed illegal by the US government.
Maybe Florida is being used as a test for passing the law which just needs to be signed now, and this event is a buildup to deploying the same law on a national level which has already been upheld via the US supreme court from the poll tax which means it cant be contested.
only scumbag pirates use torrents to get their jollies off, we should start passing longer or lifetime sentences on these lowlives who now know their killing women and children in hospitals but dont give a shit as long as they have their torrents.
>embedding decoding is triggered and activated passively spreading to any connected systems on a network in theory it can lie resident like stuxnet.
Please watch less Mr. Robot and Big Bang.
Microsoft never gave a shit about your civil liberties, and they sure aren't now. If they can get people to buy that some torrent was to blame, and not their ineptitude, they'll gladly sacrifice your liberties to keep making their money.
Why not ban email too? It initially spread through conventional phishing. Nothing at all wrong with postal mail. Only someone with ADHD who probably can't even hold a job anyway needs something faster than 2 days from when it is sent.
Why are employees, especially governmental employees, using their home devices at work instead of working on secure workstations?
Can't attach anthrax to an email
fuck pirates if it wasnt for them hollywood wouldnt be going downhill like with that avengers movie. Also its no wonder games like Mass Effect Andromeda from the most popular gaming franchise in history failed to sell more units when even the CEO said it was due to pirates who want to steal the game since its known as one of the greatest games ever made.
>using their home devices at work instead of working on secure workstations?
each dept usually has one secure workstation like super secure one, the rest are secure but not as secure if that makes sense.
>Why not ban email too?
email is not a known vector of criminals operating in an environment with the sole purpose of theft to steal copyrighted material and illegally share it with others when the content owner is given no revenue share. If we had better laws and more assets these outbreaks of ransomware and viruses would be a thing of the past as many experts are reporting.
I don't even torrent, and even I think you are full or shit.
When you bring up copyright law, I suspecting that you're some sort of MS spin artist.
It does.
> Nadella: Hey I know we're shit, but if people didn't use anything but Win 10S, our new creation this wouldn't happen.
Sounds like professional negligence, on par with forgetting to sterilize medical tools or messing up dosages.
Yep-- If someone never sent an email, this wouldn't happen ... or surf the web ... or ever launch any program.
Windows Security -- Launch a program and you are a murderer of children in hospitals!
People wont learn that torrents are illegal because their like a deadly weapon look at all the affected systems in hospitals, as soon as the kill count rises were going to see alot of agencies cracking down on torrent users to put them behind bars where all dangerous fugitives belong.
Better come get them dangerous email users too, Pajeet.
>Sounds like professional negligence
there is no need for each person to have a secured access point with no other connectivity except intranet meaning they cant connect to outside world or basically without creating software to even internally send email. Sounds easy to fix doesnt it? Maybe it is but just try getting any of that shit done and get ready for ten thousand committee hearings on even allocating 1$ to do any of it.
>there are major business and government agencies without a single sign on policy
For what fucking purpose
Personally I have never used a torrent since I am not a fucking criminal. Anyone who does we need stiff penalties against though looking at how fast things like this spread. Their basically killers weather they realize it or not due to all the children dying in hospitals around the world.
Legally download this
*Unzips*
Secure Intranets and strict rules aren't too hard to set up, you're absolutely right that this
>Maybe it is but just try getting any of that shit done and get ready for ten thousand committee hearings on even allocating 1$ to do any of it.
is why internal networks in the public and often governmental sector are such insecure and exploitable pieces of shit.
> government agencies without a single sign on policy
This tells me you have no fucking clue of what you are talking about. All US agencies do.
You're just making shit up.
Not sure if you're stupid, a liar, or paid MS shill. Whichever, I don't have time for this shit.
I'm outta here.
>>Maybe it is but just try getting any of that shit done and get ready for ten thousand committee hearings on even allocating 1$ to do any of it.
>is why internal networks in the public and often governmental sector are such insecure and exploitable pieces of shit.
Sadly this is true user, this is probably not the first time you heard that and wont be the last. Many an IT professional has been brought in to different gov sectors all wide eyed ready to fix everything only to be told to shut it all down, ignore everything and keep it all running as is. Its like keeping a brain dead patient alive on life support if that makes sense. Literally easy to do and every IT person and non-it people knows it, the problem is the dumb as shit politicians in both parties who feel if they dont use it or understand it then it doesnt matter to them. Explaining it to them is wasted breath, they will listen, pretend to understand but wont and because of that we get nothing, noone ever has. Its a crazy world but I just live here and enjoy the view.
Apparently those policies didn't prevent the CIA/NSA losing control of their tools and exploits, which got used to create malware like wannacry
Yup, it's scary how technologically incompetent most politicians are.
I love when who was it mccain or some old man politician was complaining that it took him over 2 days to get his email and that it was due to people downloading porn, you think im making that up but that is sad and true and real.
tha-thanks!
Im sick of seeing how people think torrents which are proven to be a gateway crime are safe for people to use knowing that children who could use a torrent are one step away from upping the ante to their next crime spree. With crime on the rise today in general you have to wonder how many millions less people would be in jail in america if they never used a torrent or heard an illegally downloaded mp3.
agreed
ban assault torrents
>be me
>download a torrent
>instantly become a criminal
>suddenly i start building a criminal empire
>next thing I know im a columbian drug lord cutting off heads of snitches
I am 13 years old and this is my story it all started when I downloaded that one hot Nikki Minaj songs.
Ain't it more of game publishing like AsiaSoft that helped spread the virus through their horing of 3rd world progammers?
I got hit with Conficker when i opened one of game files.
>going full retard
Neck yourself, my man.
who even runs a torrent client that auto-executes when complete?
>ss Effect Andromeda from the most popular gaming franchise in history failed to sell more units
wait are you blaming piracy like the CEO at bioware did for why people arent buying MEA?
What really happened was that a flash ad on uTorrent distributed ransomware. All that proves is that uTorrent is shit and that you should uninstall flash and install an adblocker?
was this bait randomly generated
More in the lines of "a lot of people die in car accidents, so let's ban kitchen microwaves"
Regardless, torrenters are fucking stupid.
>hur all media is shit things these days are shit, not worth money
>yet I have 19 TB of modern films and music
>but I hate it its all worthless
What the fuck are you people doing?
As an active internet user im still shocked that people would break the law just to watch a movie, is it really worth people dying over? If so how many children have to die so a person can watch an illegally obtained copy of a movie? what is next? Another holocaust?
We need to stop these little hitlers before its too late or we may end up with another holocaust where over 6 million Jewish people died.
Kill yourself commie nigger jew.
>what is next? Another holocaust?
we can only hope.
>correlation implies causation
user, you're embarassing yourself
No, uTorrent had a different vulnerability and caused different infections you fucktard. The only vectors of this ransomware's attack are emails with pdf attachments and the port 445 exploit
>pic related
>assblasted amerifats ITT
>paying for subpar products and holywood entertainment
Not everybody lives in America where ISPs and third parties come after you for doing torrent traffic. There are many countries where you can pirate whatever the fuck you want without repercussions.
>all media is shit things these days are shit
Who claims that? I'm jsut torrenting music and anime because I'm a poorfag and because some of it isn't available legally anymore
so you admit your a racist nazi my supporting torrents, no wonder a fascist who hates diversity is now the president in your country.
Normies don't download shit anymore. They stream.
Agreed, we need laws against streamers and stiffer penalties since its hurting copyright owners while also destroying lives due to ransomware and eworms.
>be me
>torrenting zootopia
>finished torrenting
>automatically becomes a criminal
>top 10 on FBI watch list
>FBI comes knocking on my door
>mfw didn't realize jerking myself off to furry porn would land you in prison for killing children
streamers are just as bad as pirates their still commiting theft and who knows how many other crimes while exposing themselves to viruses and trojans from the plugins that must run and can be exploited.
torrents literally are causing people to die which is what happened to the Jews in the holocaust, if we dont stop streamers and torrents then people are literally going to cause the holocaust to happen again.
