So besides the fact that ASUS is paying through the nose for this, what do the end consumers get?

Hopefully better security in the future.

I've been using the Getting Things Done system religiously for a decade. I highly recommend it!

I think a lot of those food tricks are now illegal, at least in the US. They're not allowed to use anything that isn't actually food. They accomplish similar things with other tricks though.

It looks like they are saying they were not hacked: https://www.teamviewer.com/en/company/press/statement-on-potential-teamviewer-hackers/

That seems to be in conflict with what a lot of people are reporting on /r/sysadmin

THIS!! I can't emphasize enough how much of a life saver this is. It's quite literally saved my career and sanity. Read the book (or listen if you're an audiobook person). Enact the system and stick with it. You'll be more productive, less stressed, and may come out of it an entirely new person.

Agreed on saving my sanity. At the time I was a very stressed out sysadmin keeping everything in my head. Now, whenever I feel stressed at work I know that I need to update my to-do list and make sure everything is in order. Instant stress relief.

The only thing I can think of that might make sense is the arms export restrictions that get applied to strong cryptography. But that usually only matters for the countries on our shit list.

@RamblingBiped might be that they don't have all the info yet - who knows?

I was also being somewhat sarcastic... I also think the link I posted might be dated (May 23rd) and referencing a different incident.

I'm glad I don't use their product...

Ah, missed your sarcasm - you should have used the /s tag

The question to present to any new person has to be a vulgar response.

Much like the standard pickup line I use "Nice shoes, wanna [f***]?"

Did...did you just refrain from using the f-word?

looks like not by choice edited by Addie.

Ah, that makes more sense. Balance has been restored to the world

I had 2 FA enabled, so I wonder if my account was compromised. If they gained access on TV end, it probably was, if there was a hack of course.

People are reporting being hacked even with 2FA on, which would tend to suggest that.

Agreed, every community gets them. Part of it is scammers wanting to seed accounts that they can use later, so they don't seem brand new.

Another big reddit thread on the issue:

This if fake, in case anyone is wondering

Remember the rule of marketing - someone has to see something three times before they'll notice and take action. It's best if those three touch points are in different media. So you'll need to email people, then show them how to get to the wiki, then also do desk drops with the URL to the wiki.

Also this video has some good pointers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osUwukXSd0k

I only had about a dozen games match in total. Out of 700+

The real answer is there is no way to know. Since they can force anyone to lie about FISA subpoenas, you can't believe what anyone says. I had that conversation with the folks at Spiceworks when I was still there. The told me that the NSA hadn't contacted them, but I was like - how do you know if your hosting provider hasn't already given everything up without your knowing? Kris told me the database is encrypted, but is there a backdoor? They're just hoping that the NSA doesn't notice that they have all this data about business networks handily gathered in one place.
