  • When Viasat’s network was hacked at the start of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, the Ukrainian government scrambled to connect troops- and the satellite internet industry got a wakeup call. Bloomberg's Katrina Manson tells us more.

    It was written about it last year, but this way of internet connection is rare, so only experts were alerted. More important is the fact that it did damage the hardware! You should have emphasized this better. Everybody knows hacking, but damaged hardware is a different level of threat.

      @@squarewheel9113 I think she mentioned that. The hackers rewrote garbage code in the firmware (BIOS equivalent) of the modems, making it so it couldn't start up properly or do anything really. The only way for these equipment to work again would be by removing and replacing the chip containing the firmware, a task incredibly hard to do at scale.
      Russians once hacked a lot of my city's most predominant ADSL modems. They made it so that every web page in each browser was contained in frames that had some nasty adware. It took a while to realize the problem was not that the computer had been infected, but it was actually code inside the modem. The most important thing that made this all possible for the russians? DEFAULT FACTORY PASSWORDS. 🤷‍♀

      I guess I haven't heard the latest news. Americans found chemical weapons in Iran? No, it’s just scary to say something about others, but you were officially allowed to talk about Russia. There is also Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Yugoslavia, Yemen, Cameroon. You just now ordered to bite, that's all.
