Are we going backwards? History is repeating, isn’t it or did I take the wrong pill.
Because I could do that with the Anarchist Cookbook over 2 decades ago as well.

How are they casually finding these home assistant servers? I sure hope people dont have port 8123 exposed publicly like that? Are you all broadcasting it in to the ether?


It’s been that case since forever now. Nothing has really changed and the same rules still apply.
I still remember ‘hacking’ my ISP ADSL router 2+ decades ago and listening to the WAN interface. Hundreds of thousands of attempts per day in the early 2000s. Mostly US, Russia and China.
My personal #1 threat on the internet for the past 20 years has been DDOS and thanks to billions of IOT devices and privacy invading ‘smart’ appliances everywhere… The botnets have never been this plenty. DDOS as a Service for mere cents a day.
LLM’s joined the fray in recent years but it still can’t do anything it hasn’t learned from us humans.


The whole internet is slowly getting ruined by AI optimization.
It’s all indexed in the LLM’s now, don’t need Reddit anymore for Reddit answers.
The ‘safeguards’ of AI are funny, as they are manually put in by humans on certain phrases and token triggers. By rephrasing it you trigger a whole new token chain that bypasses the known ones.
Or, you know, get any of the hundreds of models you can self host that don’t have any of the safeguards in place or can be broken.
In the end it matters very little. It actually kinda sounds like the the same kind of fear mongering when Google became useful in the 2000s.
Now everyone can find the Anarchist Cookbook! Why won’t anybody think of the children! Terrorism! Rabble, rabble rabble.
