How do you avoid this vulnerability, then? It's simple: you use a different browser.

How about "don't save passwords"? Instead of unchecking a box, they recommend people go download and learn a whole other browser? That's pretty sick. If the Honda Civic is the number one targeted car for thieves people are told to lock their doors, not get another car.

You don't need one, wear a pair of gloves and unscrew the disc like you are opening a jar of jam.  I haven't used a grinder tool in decades.

I intend to grind down the screws so they look the part-I want to be able to remove the lid.

 Sounds like an awesome project, post pictures once your done.

remember when this was about an edge vulnerability. man, those were the days.

 

Also, this vulnerability was patched on June 13 (source), so there's really not a whole lot to talk about here anymore ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

At least three mentions of the Illuminati, some reference to hitler and someone blaming the democrats/republicans.   Until that has happened it's not a  proper internet thread.

I'd act shocked if it weren't for the fact that this wouldn't surprise me anymore if it did happen.

Ah, thanks for the update, that's why this saw attention all of a sudden again; wondering if it had ever been fixed
