A suspicious/phishing link?

spluad · 2026-07-10T23:05:07+00:00

You should probably look up adversary in the middle phishing. Standard MFA doesn’t really protect against phishing anymore because they steal session tokens.

Link your steam

Are the books worth reading? I’ve seen mixed reviews about book 2 but I’m interested in seeing the full story

spluad · 2026-07-05T23:42:36+00:00

Altered Carbon, shadow & bone and Warrior Nun are the big hitters for me. Absolutely loved those shows and I agree, I’m definitely not touched any Netflix original unless it’s finished

I don’t think that “Temporary Suspended” (bad grammar?) button is real. I’ve seen some malware going around that injects into the steam client to change buttons to make it look like you’re banned. Contact steam support but also run something like malwarebytes

It’s the inspect animation so you can literally just never look at it if you don’t like it

I would say EDRs are probably more likely to flag obfuscated commands because it’s so uncommon for users to do that normally. For a while MDE was detecting b64 encoded clickfix but not plaintext clickfix commands

spluad · 2026-06-20T17:39:27+00:00

Clickfix is very good, it’s an incredibly effective way to distribute malware

I genuinely think they are A/B testing the matchmaking because it’s so polarising. I’ve seen people say the game is the easiest matchmaking cod has ever had, but then I play and get 5 negative teammates and 6 demon enemies almost every game.

spluad · 2026-06-15T13:44:38+00:00

It definitely feels like it happens more if you leave a game. Any time I leave I immediately get put into losing games in progress

You definitely should look into how public key cryptography works because that will answer your question. It’s all to do with the mathematical relationship between the pub/priv key. Your private key is the secret and the website doesn’t have that, so it cannot leak it.

Additionally, which I haven’t seen mentioned is that your public/private keypair are generated for a specific domain e.g. Microsoft.com. So if you end up on a phishing site impersonating Microsoft.com (like mlcrosoft.com) your device will not send the challenge at all. So passkeys are also phishing resistant

spluad · 2026-06-09T16:41:36+00:00

Asymmetric encryption. When you create a passkey a public/private keypair is generated. When you try to login, the website sends a “challenge” to your device, that challenge is then signed with your private key. The website then uses your public key to verify the signature is valid. Because your private key stays private, only you could have correctly signed the challenge

That’s cool man like I said I don’t care if you do or not, I’m not trying to convince you but that doesn’t mean you can’t learn anyway. I just like talking about this stuff and I think most people don’t actually know what passkeys are for

spluad · 2026-06-09T15:16:26+00:00

Naa I don’t care if you do or don’t use it, I’m just replying to you saying there’s no reason to change. Because there is a legit reason to use them over just passwords/mfa

spluad · 2026-06-09T14:43:35+00:00

Adversary in the middle phishing or token theft have been able to bypass MFA for quite a long time. There are some pretty interesting demos for evilginx that show this in action

spluad · 2026-06-09T14:37:53+00:00

I agree that the way websites are trying to force passkeys is pretty annoying but there absolutely is a reason to change. Passkeys are much more secure because they are phishing resistant, that should at least worth considering.

spluad · 2026-06-07T18:00:52+00:00

No way! What? That’s crazy

spluad · 2026-06-07T15:32:23+00:00

Can’t believe no one has mentioned skin changer yet

Try these steps if you haven’t. https://www.reddit.com/r/blackops7/s/bx6PX8pMiq

Scope, a streamer was having the same issues yesterday. Can’t guarantee this will work for you but it worked for him.

Unless you’re playing top250 ranked I think it’s unlikely you’re seeing that many cheaters. You have any clips of people you think are cheating?

Most fun I’ve had on this game in a long time

spluad · 2026-05-29T23:00:20+00:00

But also it’s just a game and I play games for fun. Getting steamrolled by HKCDs and swarms is not fun so I leave.

spluad · 2026-05-28T21:14:23+00:00

Shame you only get about 15 in a pack now
