Articles I’ve read on Friday

Here are some of the articles I’ve read on Friday.

• Windows 10 Anniversary Update reinstalls bundled apps you’ve previously removed Beta News This is quite disturbing and Microsoft should be ashamed of themselves, or should they not? I had a hard time with this article but read quite a bit of it.
• So You’ve Been Infected with Ransomware… Phishlabs and a great read at that.
• Massive Email Bombs Target .Gov Addresses Krebs on Security This one scares me a little bit. Most E-mail lists default to confirming addresses, the ones I’ve been on anyway, and all of the ones i host are either confirm and approve or confirm, and the only way to add is through the interface to add people manually. Very sad. Brian also indicates he was targeted, and he has no idea why.
• Malware Infected All Eddie Bauer Stores in U.S., Canada Krebs on Security I also saw this in a newsletter I’m subscribed to. If I were infected, I’d know it as the computer would be doing things and it wouldn’t feel right. Guess POS things work differently. Twitter for iPhone

Have fun.
