    Sounds like the security community working together to minimize the effectiveness of a hacking community.

        The logic is a little problematic, because it also means you mislead ordinary users, and honestly the infosec industry has a conflict of interest as well.

          I disagree in the infosec conflict of interest. Flooding might even be a product in some vendor.

            …well of course it’s beneficial to their product, and a detriment against everyone else, which is why I called it a conflict of interest.

            Either that, or you used the wrong word. Care to elaborate?

      I see more spambots trying to monetize on desperate people. People try the link in the password field, that goes in a rabbit hole of concatenated ad.fly link “shorteners” that only show endless ads
