Maybe it also depends on a country? In my country the AWS support is incomparable.

That's exactly why would I newer support opting for GCP.

With AWS, we have our account manager, whom I can call and he actually has some powers and can fix and do stuff for us.

Surprise surprise, paid GCP customers get the same.

Not in my experience, unfortunately. The reps we got with GCP could give us advice, but no real powers to push stuff or solve problems, it felt more like L1 support. As described bellow, maybe it depends on a company size and/or a country.

our account manager definitely opened doors for us and got us in touch with experts that could solve our issues.

150 sized company in a small EU country. We have a silver enterprise contract.

> paid GCP customers get the same

I think paid may be relative with GCP.

Yeah, Oppo and Huawei phones are great fit for CalyxOS. Have you seen the list of supported devices for Calyx? It's basically Pixel-only :).

The title is misleading, it was not hacked. There was an detected attempt, but it was mitigated.

The original title is: “ Avast fights off cyber-espionage attempt, Abiss”

However, there is an unclear statement in the blog post on whether there was in fact a successful hack or a failed attempt:

“When analyzing the external IPs, we found that the actor had been attempting to gain access to the network through our VPN as early as May 14 of this year.

After further analysis, we found that the internal network was successfully accessed with compromised credentials through a temporary VPN profile that had erroneously been kept enabled and did not require 2FA.“

Seems like the internal Avast network was _compromised_, but not the products itself.

Why not something like Let's Encrypt, but for S/MIME?

That's actually what a Swiss startup called Vereign seems to be working on: https://medium.com/@ggreve/nobody-cares-about-signatures-a56...

I really need to sign up in order to see any samples???

Sadly yes. I agree it's not ideal, and hopefully that will change in the future. There has already been plenty of feedback to the demo team on this issue -developers don't like sign up walls!

Usage of such tools violates TOS of Spotify, with Premium account or not. They can cancel your account because of this.

Another theory says that the webmasters are stealing the coins themselves. Perfect crime ;).

Sure, makes sense but why would I steal millions when I could do billions? - though it's better to err on side of petty.

Once you get past about $5million you might as well cash it in there rather than take any more risks - you're set for life either way.

Iceland should be OK

Iceland is a NATO country, and fairly friendly with USA.
