I mean normalizing by dollar spent makes the list useful. It's not a "most units sold" list. It's a where is everyone spending money list.

If you think that IP blocking stops credential stuffing you really are out of your depth.

Would it stop this guy if he was some skid just running Kali? Absolutely.

But it ain't going to stop anyone more determined. Especially since you're going to let those blocks expire to avoid blocking legitimate customers. A patient opposition with minimal resources will get by that kind of naive approach.

Not only that but you have 0 evidence they didn't IP block. They absolutely could have standard protocols in place but anything short of 2fa is inherently vulnerable.

Preventing these kinds of attacks is a nontrivial problem space and is the exact reason why scraping services are a lucrative business.

It is not trivial to prevent dark web actors from using botnets to make requests and it is comparatively inexpensive to access botnets as a service.

Sending emails for suspicious login is 2fa, by the way.

The only way it will work is requesting it from them.

When I requested deletion (in like 2017) it was pretty quick.

Note: this was from password stuffing and is only profile data, not genetic.

Your genomics can only be downloaded from a link sent to your email account.

Don't reuse your passwords.

The only thing 23andme could have done to prevent this is 2fa.

Aka how to ensure that all the data Facebook has on you never goes away. This is terrible advice.

If you're just trying to leave Facebook I recommend going the deletion route then filtering all emails from them.

The accounts compromised were ones that had reused their passwords and the only way to get genomic data from an account is for a link to be sent to your email account.

(from accounts that had reused passwords elsewhere)

Until the January layoffs the company was fairly even keeled. Most of the Google equivalent of an all-hands meeting were concerned around the layoffs happening with other companies.

Initially the message was "no, there won't be layoffs". Around November it became "we can't predict the future".

And then 12k employees were laid off via email without even telling their managers. The first that team leads heard about it was if a laid off employee sent a farewell email.

There wasn't a list anywhere of who was laid off and all their corp accounts were active until the final day of their 60-90 day warning period.

So sentiment now is essentially: fuck you Sundar, and I know productive and smart devs who have done essentially 0 work since January, in part because they're upset but also because their managers got laid off/roadmaps changed/etc

The mass layoffs caused a lot of fear so even high level managers started dropping their roadmaps to focus on anything that would look good for them specifically.

The tldr is it's all a mess and the bubbly happy sentiment is a thing of the past.

I've played 100 hours of Elden Ring streaming and the difference between steam and moonlight is night and day in my experience. Steam struggled to hit 60fps streaming (definitely not the computer's fault: it's their streaming codecs or something) while moonlight is rock steady 60fps.
