The problem is that the names weren't provided by users to glassdoor. If glassdoor stumbles across someone's real name then they have automatically attached it to the user profile. They're doxxing their users so now people have to worry if they ever used the service.

For those unaware, this is not a joke

I applied for food stamps when i was in college. I was financially independent (kicked out at 17), was working two part jobs to make ends meet, and met the requirements. When my dad found out about the food stamps he lost his mind and tried to sell me on this whole "ask family" bullshit when he was the one that cut me off and always had strings attached to his help. So yeah i took the food stamps. It sure hurt his pride that someone in our family would be on food stamps. But fuck pride, i needed to eat.

There was a darknet diaries episode on sim swaps recently that some of you might find interesting. Ep 112: Dirty Coms.

from the episode: You also have to worry about current/former employees knowing how to use manager tablets, because those tablets can get stolen and then passed off to someone who knows what they're doing to do a sim swap before the tablet gets locked out

I have a whole note of memorable ones i keep, but the one that i come back to the most is riker's "i dream of a galaxy where your eyes are the stars and the universe worships the night" and the following exchange.

Hackers didn't hack roku. They "hacked" people who were dumb enough to reuse old, compromised passwords from other services. That is a very big difference from OPs title "roku got hacked".

It is good for roku to disclose this, but the issue is that people reused passwords.

Very misleading title

You also need to pay to just have message history preserved on slack. Discord that information is there for free for as long as the server/discord exists.

I'm not saying people should use discord, but people are using it because it's free to use.

"how do you know someone [does crossfit, is vegan, uses linux]"

"They'll tell you"

It's a fairly common joke and seems to get stapled onto any lifestyle choice that someone likes to talk about

It depends on where you live. This absolutely is the present now in some countries. Like China you have to do this and more to protect your identity.

And even if your country isn't quite there yet, they could still be collecting all that data and just not doing anything with it other than observing and collecting more data on you/ the group.
