SpaceLifeFormThe purpose of Microsoft is [redacted].
You would not believe me anyway.
The [redacted] is two words, abbreviation EE.
@SpaceLifeForm surely you mean FVEY
Hacker Memes@Viss time to fire everyone in IT that read the documents. Including those that are now not going to patch it. 
AI6YR Ben@Viss hahahahahaha
Matt Franz@Viss That is almost as suprising as Slashdot still existing.

Alex@Viss I find the cloud to be one of the most waste of resources ever.
@alex02 BUT SERVERLESS, ALEX
@Viss IT IS STILL A GODDAMN BOX THAT LIGHTS UP!!!
@Viss I hate the cloud second to NAT. Fuck NAT.
@alex02 why do you hate nat?
@Viss I just find it a messy solution to a problem and it has been a pita to deal with for certain projects cuz I am a broke ass and can't setup a vps all the time for stuff like my own vpn server via wireguard.
@alex02 have you messed with google cloud shell at all? theres a free tier. same with aws! plenty of power for a one user wg setup
@Viss I looked at them before, but they usually require a fuck ton of personal information including a working phone number (I don't have that). They also had a lot of fine print and weird tiers so I decided not to risk get screwed even more and not risk overdrafting my bank account.
@alex02 hm. ask around for a shell, i guess? digital ocean can do $5/mo vms
@Viss funny enough, there are a few projects and services that work to getting around the NAT, but haven't had a chance to properly look at any of their libraries and write programs.
Zerotier is a nice one, but they recommend wrapping the traffic with encryption on top of zerotier since it is e2e and shouldn't be trusted 100%. Not that it isn't safe to use, but just the nature of e2e.
Under the hood they usually use nat traversals and holepunching. It is quite interesting tbh...
Wombatadon@Viss outsource your risk to an entity with no stake but profit, they didn't say.
@tjbutt58 you can outsource the work, but you cant outsource the risk - no matter how hard you flex that collegiate legal lexicon in the contract

Robert Kist 🇦🇹🇸🇬@Viss Didn't MS just say "security" is the highest focus now? lol
@kwramm they are the most recent org to get hauled in front of a congressional committee and outright lie, to then not be held accountable. yes
Gorgeous na Shock!@Viss "IT departments at some companies have set up lax permissions" lolol...
Justin M@Viss lol. They announced a new health benfiets at work. But it's run by Telus and the user agreement states they can feed your health data to their AI.
No thanks
Grimblob@Viss I blame the internal IT professionals, not the default settings on this feature.
Yes.

The companies using this flavor of copilot should be sued by anyone holding an NDA with them and get all information security related certifications revoked.

The worst of all is that, even if those documents are hallucinated, it will cast a doubt.
truh@Viss the idea that you can put all the private information on a huge pile and build a privacy solution on top of the outputs seems ludicrous.
Softwarewolf@Viss They keep using phrases like "Copilot's magic".
It's. Not. Magic.
