Pinned Security Bulletins thread in Tech News

[orbitalbuzzsaw]

Pretty simple, a thread for posting security warnings and ways to protect yourself from them. Stuff that's not really worth of a new thread (like Spectre variant #55433398831) could go here, and stuff worth a full thread (like https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/957729-facebook-attempted-to-shut-down-a-tool-that-allows-you-to-inspect-their-data-tracking/)

 

could get it's own thread AND go here.

I approve.

I second this movement

The problem with this is that it couldn't be entirely managed by staff, so it would have to be an open topic, and open topics tend not to be great for bulletins where you want every post to be just describing the vulnerability and following a fixed format. It's a sensible idea though.
