I agree. It would be nice if you could self host your own api, and keep these things from turning into useless hockey pucks

I’m guessing they did this change because the cost of giving a free service isn’t cheap for docker?

Does this passwordless future still involve getting a cookie in your browser that can be stolen and used from an attackers machine? If so, we still have a problem to fix.

Suing a journalist is not a good look. I wonder what other vendors out there will take up some market share from them after this nonsense is over. Hopefully this in the end this turns into a net positive for Krebs.

Maybe I missed it but did they cover logging all keystrokes entered by users over the bastion? (In the case where you need to log into it first vs merely doing port forwarding)

When I looked mine up I could see just about every job I’ve ever had. It also showed who pulled this report over the past 24 months. I see that my credit card companies pulled it, a background check company that my current job used, and also some random “TEST Batch Account” whatever that is.
SSN + DOB and you can find out how much money I made on my w2 for many years of my life. Nice.
I am debating on doing a ccpa delete on this data. I wonder if future employers will give me a hard time when negotiating pay if they can’t verify my salary this way? Also, will I have to delete it every time that an employer sends them this data? Awesome.

It’s hilarious that companies try to stop you from discussing your salary but at the same time they will give it away for free to a shady company.

How is this even legal? How do we make this no longer possible? It seems like we need a new law to stop this unapproved sharing.
Did we ever agree to this?

Re:Stripe hiring issues make some lose job offers
on Thursday December 02, 2021 @03:06AM (#29413661)
If nothing else, reject stripe offers to avoid this one year grant scam. It decreases your potential upside, and saves them money, lowering your earning potential vastly. Some companies who do this argue it will protect you from downside. But you know what else does? Getting a new offer elsewhere (with signing bonus).
I have over heard that snap, lyft, coinbase, and stripe are doing one year grants. Avoid them like the plague!

Their source of salaries is Glassdoor which seems to be focused on base salary alone.
They should have used levels.io for a better source. It includes bonus and rsu.

So much this. It’s insanely annoying when they say something isn’t a risk and then they fix it shortly after. Google should improve this problem over new webpages.
