I find it interesting that in their "Should I panic" section, they miss one of the biggest panic-inducing points for me: That a program running in ring 0 has some form of internet access.

They don't go into detail here about how far this goes, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to hear that it is directly sending and receiving data from the internet. That is such a bad idea for obvious reasons.
