I'm already seeing higher than normal attempts on my own systems, much higher than the usual scanners and background noise. Security will just need to improve. The cat is out of the bag, and letting them turn their negligence into regulation will not improve security at all.
Exactly. Any threat that already exists won’t be reduced by a cartel. The bar for connecting to the internet (safely) has gone up, a lot. It’s not going back down.
I would rather not turn the internet (or the rest of existence) into a dark forest if we can help it. Are you sure that's not preventable?
Yes, the cat really is out of the bag. There are millions of downloads of highly capable models already out there, distributed far and wide. There's no going back at this point.
