🍹Early to RISA 🧉Anon lives dangerously
JohnWorksThis feels like it would be dangerous but let’s say you have a good av how bad would it be?
SanctusStill bad, they are running with whatever vulnerabilities existed at the time and all those are known by now.
Like if you took a 100% non-vaxed person and sent them on a European brothel tour in 1350.
If you manage to find an updated browser and don’t host any network service it shouldn’t be too dangerous.
If he’s checking his bank account on there then you’re still pretty bad. Downloading dubious cracked software is never a good start.
You are still vulnerable to every kind of vulnerability in every program that processes a file you download. Particularly parsers (e.g. XML, images, PDFs,…) tend to have a lot of those over the years.
Way less dangerous than people say.
Unless you do stupid shit like plug in unknown USB sticks or put a public IP on your PC you will be mostly fine.
