We tell each other these parables for a reason. It's in hope we don't have to just learn the hard way but this time there is no hacking involved. This is what I call a "joke" utilizing what I like to refer to as "humor". Results may vary.

Ok so #iamroot has gotten much worse. If you have a Mac, and have upgraded to High Sierra, please do this NOW. It resets your Root account to have a password of your choice.

Also, consider boosting this for visibility into non-techie circles. This is about a Defcon 2 situation. Pretty Damn Serious.
