Because it includes the modified code from the GPL licensed code and any derivative works, which in many cases may mean the source code to their entire application including what they may consider sensitive IP has to be provided or readily made available to customers who have paid for the software. Further to this any paying customer who receives this source code can make it all publicly available for free which can effectivelly kill the paid software.

I am sorry but no. I spent nearly 20 years working in the control industry and specifically for a global company that provided some of these control and monitoring systems. Tracing food from production through to end consumers has strict industry standards that need to be met in most developed countries. For example FDA CFR 21 in the US and the EC regulations in the EU which all have track and trace requirements. This is key if there are any issues at any point of the supply chain so that the appropriate entities can respond in the interest of ensuring the health safety of the public.

I get the sentiment and the insecure connectivity is pure incompetence, but commercial refrigeration is not the same as consumer refrigeration, with much more complex controls required to deal with managing large energy consumption, irregular and frequent access, variable amount of goods being held, and usually mandatory persisted logging and automatic alarms, sometimes being sent centrally and 24 hourly to meet strict food regulations.

I didn’t understand why people would be downvoting a picture of a nicely cooked Sunday roast on a cooking community, but then I spotted what some would find offensive about this post. You are just using paper towels as serviettes and they are not even folded up into neat squares!

Cook on SatansMaggotyCumFart. That roast looks good.

Monty Python has taught me to assume a swift and gruesome death awaits me if I dare enter into that bunnies turf.

If they kept the studio operating, the intent would be to provide players with a sense of pride and accomplishment for unlocking different heroes.

He was probably trying to flatten it as he knows the world isn’t really a globe.

I think it’s spelled acroprolapse.

What if I told you some legacy control devices on protocols like modbus don’t even have the concept of users/auth. Just send a request with a valid op, in range register, and a valid crc and the device will just read or write whatever you send it. There are literally tens of thousands of these devices still online and internet accessible globally.

“Henriques said. “The takeaway is clear: digital risk extends far beyond workstations and email servers.”

This is not a new takeaway. For many of us who have been in the control and automation industry for decades, we remember things like the Idaho National Labs demo attack and the Siemens equipment Stuxnet attack used to disrupt nuclear enrichment plants. A lot of this accessible equipment runs on old well documented protocols so rogue AI agents would have no issue being able to communicate with a lot of this equipment.
