As for your latest contribution to the meat of this topic, I cite a recent post of yours:
and seriously, I noticed a huge upsurge in not only spam, but in direct server intrusion attempts during the past six-months or so. I had 3 kids grow up during the early gaming craze (say 2005 - present). The kids e-mails/accounts associated with the server are used in intrusion attempts from all over the globe.
Perhaps the huge upsurge of spam is a result, not of spam posts on HyperKitty, but rather of your kids' behaviour on the internet; otherwise, how do their email accounts even enter into the picture?
This week it has been known that three big different Spanish companies had big data leaks, giving bad actors access to email, phones, ID numbers, partial pay card numbers, etc, so that the bad actors can phone us and credibly recite private data so that we think it is our bank or our telephone company who is really calling us to change something in our contract or some other concocted plan to part with our money. All in a week. Three major companies. How come? I forgot to hit send on this email. Meanwhile, another big agency had a major leak, too. This time, I think the perpetrators were found. https://www.eldiario.es/tecnologia/ciberdelincuentes-hackean-dgt-ponen-venta... Can't find a reference on the arrest, maybe I heard wrong. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.5 x86_64 at Telcontar)
