Glad you put this up here. The people need to know

Tiva · Posted 07-06-2012, 07:14 PM

People do need to know... i had to wipe my mom's laptop last month to get rid of it.

Lioshika · Posted 07-06-2012, 10:55 PM

I used dcwg.org to determine if either my laptop or my mom's would face a problem. It said both of ours was working properly.

I don't think they gave proper notification of it, honestly. I didn't know anything about this until this afternoon when my mom brought the paper home. Not to mention, the news article did not tell you how you could test this at all. Which is most ridiculous!

I think they went about this all the wrong way.

hyjin · Posted 07-06-2012, 10:57 PM

it did say how to test. it was the first link on the article

Lioshika · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:02 PM

Hyjin; I was talking about the article in the newspaper. It just said how people would lose internet Monday and how the FBI did this to save us. Pathetic little paper.

hyjin · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:06 PM

oh sorry thought you meant the online one

Lioshika · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:08 PM

No. But I haven't even seen anything really online talk about it either.

I wonder why.

hyjin · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:12 PM

its on some news websites

Lioshika · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:16 PM

But I would of thought such huge thing would have been given more informational spaces on news channels, sites, papers, etc.

hyjin · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:24 PM

yeah but i think they wont make it a big deal until it happens

Lioshika · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:27 PM

Of course not. Then there will be a mass flux for call centers and such. It's going to be a huge pain.

hyjin · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:33 PM

yeah it will be im just glad my house is clean from that thing

Lioshika · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:51 PM

As am I.

But I can see where this will become a huge issue, that providers will use to charge people money for the issues to get fixed.

hyjin · Posted 07-06-2012, 11:55 PM

yep. they will take advantage of that

Lioshika · Posted 07-07-2012, 12:02 AM

I can see how my provider will now. They'll charge to have someone go out there, charge for replacements, etc. They can be such dicks!
