oh, somebot is in trouble:

Yes, this happened:

Must have worked *somewhere* at least *once*, right?

Oh, so somebot thought this would work:
May 20 04:04:16 portal sshd-session[90553]: Failed password for invalid user $ from 23.94.213.157 port 41886 ssh2
yes, this happened:

Background: "Badness, Enumerated by Robots" https://nxdomain.no/~peter/badness_enumerated_by_robots.html and links therein
Over at LinkedIn, somebody posted the results of putting a Linux server with sshd exposted to the internet for 30 days recently.
In that particular area, not much seems to have changed since the early years of this century when the events chronicled here https://nxdomain.no/~peter/hailmary_lessons_learned.html (or if you prefer Big G's trackers, https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-hail-mary-cloud-and-lessons-learned.html) occurred.

Hm. Over at the facesite I commented on a post about #bruteforce attacks on a commercial network product with a link to https://nxdomain.no/~peter/badness_enumerated_by_robots.html, and got a followup asking whether I have bruteforce protection "in front of" my ssh servers.
And this only hours after I scared the cat by LOL from seeing that the #pop3gropers are actively trying the local parts of my freshly random spamtraps (see https://nxdomain.no/~peter/eighteen_years_of_greytrapping.html a bit down the page). #passwordgroping #cybercrime
