THE Microsoft FUD machine known as ZDNet is at it again. "ZD" stands for Zero & Dreck.
"Fake reporting and fake security are a growing problem online."Shame on Brittany Day for amplifying all this ZDNet trash and FUD. It's not the first time LinuxSecurity.com does this; the site not always anti-Linux, but too often it relays anti-Linux pieces without some basic "Sanity Check" or fact-checking. So the FUD gets added to the mix and perpetuated for anti-Linux elements' benefit.
The latest FUD says: "There's been a 2,000% increase of new malware written in Go over the past few years. Many of these malware families are botnets targeting Linux and IoT devices to either install crypto miners or enroll the infected machine into DDoS botnets."
We would rather not link to either site and send traffic in this stuff's direction/way. But for those who are interested the video gives enough of a starting point (such as headline or URL).
Fake reporting and fake security are a growing problem online. Faking stuff is the business model. ⬆
