This was only the fifth Emergency Directive issued by CISA under the authorities granted by Congress in the Cybersecurity Act of 2015. CISA reported a breach of the SolarWinds Orion…" Discussion from some of my security/computer science friends related: Josh 7:26 AM this solar winds raid is really a big deal CryptoJ 8:06 AM Lol.. talk about understatement JVL 8:25 AM one of the few products I've known how to give myself super admin for once on the box 8:25 one rinky dink table with a bunch of Y and N values for ACL's...

Dirty_habiT Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 I was just explaining zero-day vulnerabilities in the "professional advice" thread yesterday. This is where the rubber meets the road everyone. This solarwinds thing wasn't just "found" the other day. Someone, perhaps many people, or groups, were exploiting the snot out of this prior to it becoming public. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty_habiT Posted December 19, 2020 Author Share Posted December 19, 2020 I'm fairly certain if this gets as bad as it could get then the people that cashed out will be implicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty_habiT Posted December 19, 2020 Author Share Posted December 19, 2020 You know what though, now that I think about it, yes selling off your stock knowing that the price would drop is illegal af.... but these guys just "took their cash" and will stash it. That 280M is already spread out or put in some spot where it cannot be easily taken from them. It only makes sense. They're probably sitting around waiting for the feds to come knocking on their doors knowing that when it's all ironed out they'll still have most of their money they took.

Mercer Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Me personally, I'm not so much against "insider trading" as broad as the SEC's definition goes myself. Having advanced knowledge, or a belief an investment will go up, or down is exactly what everyone investing is exploiting. How specific that knowledge is is really of no consequence because somebody is already going to lose money. The situation's morality, legality, or NAP compliance should be decided using the same framework used to decide if a transaction is fraudulent. So some insider trading is a violation, and some isn't. My problem is this type of trading activity is so common, and difficult to prove, it's only a good tool for going after people who get caught slipping. Kind of a waste of enforcement effort, like if only 1 out of 1000 speeders gets a ticket. Nobody gives a fuck and just makes sure they don't get caught. Another reason decentralized (free market) finance systems are far superior to regulated markets. Decentralized finance isn't bent by regulatory distortion and reflects a market reality based in real world conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
