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

Tiva 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 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 07-06-2012 10:57 PM

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

Lioshika 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 07-06-2012 11:06 PM

oh sorry thought you meant the online one

Lioshika 07-06-2012 11:08 PM

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

I wonder why.

hyjin 07-06-2012 11:12 PM

its on some news websites

Lioshika 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 07-06-2012 11:24 PM

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

Lioshika 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 07-06-2012 11:33 PM

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

Lioshika 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 07-06-2012 11:55 PM

yep. they will take advantage of that

Lioshika 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!
