I scheduled another meeting at 10. It's about the meeting we had at 8:30. Productivity is down and we need to figure out why. We may need some additional meetings in the afternoon.
He’s being sued because he used publicly available credentials to login to a fox streaming site and recorded the videos
I fully support the guy’s work, but also it sounds like the “publicly available credentials” were stolen login info? You can’t use stolen or leaked login info to log in to a system you’re not authorized to use, take data from that system, and then expect no consequences. This is blatantly illegal
Was that wrong? Should I not have done that? I tell you, I gotta plead ignorance on this thing, because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing is frowned upon…
Possessing illegally obtained information is completely different from illegally obtaining information though. Publishing documents given to you by an insider or a whistleblower is not the same thing as breaking in to a system and taking documents
If you go to Starbucks and there’s WI-FI credentials on the wall, are you not supposed to use it without permission? This is what he did, just different publicly available credentials. Yes, the radio guys posted them by accident, but it’s their job to inform about the fuck-up, so fox can remedy it. Nothing about this is the journalist’s fault. He is just doing his job. Finding material the owner-class don’t want published, then publishing it.
“unauthorized access” is such a bullshit term, if the system hands the information over when someone asks for it, not using any exploits or anything, that’s not unauthorized, that’s the people running the system not liking what they’ve authorized after the fact.
If I asked Rupert Murdoch for a transcript of the interview, and he gives it to me, that’s not unauthorized, he just gave it to me.
Yes, you need permission to use someone else’s WiFi. Or their computer.
If the Starbucks store manager has a post it note on their computer monitor with their login credentials, that doesn’t mean you can log into their computer.
