Read the article, it's specifically trying to get rid of CP

Outside of bots and spam, third party Discord clients also often disable a lot of Electron's options that guard against XSS stuff escaping the sandbox, which is pretty dangerous. I wouldn't be surprised if Discord wanted to minimize the chance of some really big problem stemming from lots of users using these unsafe versions.

Pretty sure the "new" part is the following:

Not so much the yearlies, but the quarterlies!

I too like money

Neither really, it's demonstrating that it's kind of dumb to consider a paid advertisement "speech" for the purposes of "free speech", considering there's inherently a restriction there on how much "speech" you get, because you have to pay for the ability to "speak".

Yeah, the SEC did. After the contempt hearing, they had to renegotiate what constitutes "material" information as a part of their settlement, and that was essentially Musk/Tesla's wake-up call of "Oh, we only just BARELY got out of that mess". So as a result, they've actually been following what the original spirit of the settlement was meant to enforce.

Of course, we're still seeing issues where Musk is getting sued for threatening workers on Twitter for unionizing, but that's a slightly different issue than lying about production predictions.

It seems like the big distinction is going to be between "they didn't tell investors that they were a huge climate change contributor" and "they didn't tell investors how much money they'd lose out on from stricter environmental regulation".

TLDR/Background:

* Hutchins (MalwareTech on social media) used to be a black hat, and developed/sold a banking trojan that would become Kronos.

* Since then, he's given up black hat activity and began reverse-engineering malware and providing educational material along the same lines.

* He came into the spotlight when he realized that the Wannacry ransomware was attempting to contact a particular web domain that was unregistered. He registered it to see what they were trying to send and why, and found out that it was a global killswitch, fully shutting down the initial strain of the malware.

* After Def Con 2017, he was arrested at the airport when attempting to leave the US. He was being charged with devleoping Kronos, and prosecutors were effectively adding new charges in retaliation every time he refused to plead guilty.

* He eventually caved and plead guilty, and today was sentenced to a year of supervised release, with no jail time (Though he likely won't be able to enter the US again). The judge strongly indicated that the lenient sentence was due to the fact that he stopped breaking the law of his own volition, and started using his skills to better the world.

* This article doesn't mention it, but the judge also suggested that he and his legal counsel seek a pardon, which could potentially allow him to enter the US again. They are planning to go forward with that path.

It was definitely for the banking trojan he created and sold, that would later become Kronos. That said, he also became sort of a public figure in the field due to stopping the initial strain of Wannacry, so news articles were popping up talking about how he was at least tangentially related to Wannacry, and was recently arrested for malware charges. People saw that and started drawing the false conclusion that he created Wannacry.

I mean that's a perfect choice as long as your marketing strategy isn't to hope that people pay extra for the feature thinking that it's FSD. The fact that Tesla still hasn't done something like this is proof that they're kind of relying on people to think that autopilot is something that automatically pilots the vehicle, which it doesn't.

So uh, no real change.
