I think that criminals will try and get those certs. Do big time damage to the EU and hopefully stop them pushing such bullshit...
Some hacking is ethical...
In fact most hacking is ethical. The public just doesn't hear about it.
Tell that politicians xD
Someone was prosecuted for hacking bc they hit F12. Lmao, never gonna get over that.
I know that story, sad and funny altogether: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2021/12/missouri-planned-to-thank-security-journalist-before-governor-called-him-a-hacker/
Ah, looks like he was never prosecuted after all, but the whole situation was still a horrible mess.
Thats an older source, saw some newer on reddit last week. Try to find it. But nothing happened to our hacking hero xD

… cause that’s how the internets works, it’s okay when the government does it, and they are able to control everything on the internet through regulations. Didn’t you know that?
Like regulations ever helped on the internet.
