Windows Ransomware Must Not be Unspeakable When People Die in Large Numbers Due to That (and Windows Has Intentional Back Doors)

"Winner also suggested they would “mysteriously lose the form,” and as it turns out, that is essentially the bureaucratic game they are playing with her life as the coronavirus remains a risk in prisons throughout the United States." --The Dissenter 2 days ago (shades of Seattle PD)

Flight logbook Sorry, mate... we've lost all your records. No backups. No paper.



Summary: Loss of electronic patient records, ransom and downtime among the severe consequences of deploying Microsoft inside hospitals; yet the media rarely names the real culprit (manslaughter charges theoretically possible) and nobody gets punished except those who offer real solutions

THIS is the closing part of the series above, which included some additional memes and humour 'in between'...



We'd like to think that many people out there can learn something from the experience of our sources (there were several, we'd rather not enumerate them as that number increases risk). The stories have proof associated with them. This is a real issue, a very legitimate problem. It seems to be widespread, not only in the medical domain.

"We'd like to think that many people out there can learn something from the experience of our sources (there were several, we'd rather not enumerate them as that number increases risk).""I'm paranoid about the "security" people my doctor has hired in the wake of the ransomware attack," a source once told us.

"I'm afraid that they have already slandered me."

People in the workplace can sometimes be ranked based on their obedience to some dubious status quo (conformity) or some external corporate interests. It's universally true that proprietary software vendors dislike technical workers who put the workplaces in control of its own systems rather than some outside 'cloud' or contractors. We saw that in Munich.

"People in the workplace can sometimes be ranked based on their obedience to some dubious status quo (conformity) or some external corporate interests.""My wonderful, free software-friendly IT person was run off [...] and the circumstances were fishy to say the least," a source explained to us. "Any hope of real control of the network and computer systems was lost at that point."

Then crackers took over the Microsoft systems, costing lives. But Windows wasn't being named; instead there were sanctions against anything but Windows and the country's special agents got involved. What a catastrophe. The media (or "mainstream") casually talks about COVID-19 death tolls, but never about Windows death tolls. Microsoft prefers it that way and Bill Gates profits from it.
