  • I feel like you’re not understanding what I am trying to convey. Or I am not being clear enough?

    A temperature sensor being hacked is nothing to worry about. Worst case scenario, the hacked sensor will report the wrong temperature and some employee will come running over to the freezer. Upon manual inspection they will realise the temperature is in fact not +50°C despite the exposed sensor reporting that.

    The freezers automated freezing/heating just runs off an other separate temperature sensor that won’t be hacked since it is not exposed to the internet.

    Don’t this make sense to you? 😅





  • In one exchange, an employee in the company’s security Slack channel urged Proton to at least take a few days to pentest newly written code before pushing it live. “That’s bullshit and loser thinking. Of course it’s possible to be fast and secure,” Yen wrote in the channel at the end of August. “Stop thinking always of how to be slower, and focus more on how to be faster.” Yen added, “stop lovingly handcrafting all our code and use AI more.”

    Yikes, this Yen guy seems really charming
