Satellite TV is transmitted as DVB-S. Normally the TV itself does not decode it, but an external box.

How is the Satellite signal getting to your TV?

Congress is on top of this?

Wow.

How gullible are you? You really think that anyone in Congress rents their family home and lives in it?

This is the same Congres that cannot agree to national medical care, student debt, minimum wage, COVID prevention measures, or abortion?

Yeah, winning LOTTO is a better bet.

It doesn’t exist yet, so there’s nothing to approve.

I wonder if it’s caused by the crap build quality, the price or the Muppet in charge. I suppose it could be the ongoing promises for level 5 autonomous driving that is always at least six months away and has been for years.

Happy coincidence?

Except that the idea is that you cannot get data in or out of the corporate network. Depending on how it’s implemented will determine how successful that is.

Regardless, you’re likely to lose your job if it’s detected without written permission and even then it’s likely to turn into a security pissing match.

From having played with the remote desktop offering from AWS, it’s a Windows Server running a terminal session. It’s likely heavily locked down and on its own network with likely no inbound network connectivity.

Similarly, the compute nodes are likely to be locked down to only accept connections from the remote desktop network.

It all depends on what the brief was to whomever set it up.

You might be able to do some shenanigans with the web browser on the remote desktop, but for my money, I’d just open your browser, set it to full screen and forget about how your keystrokes are travelling.

Ultimately, unless you’re a shareholder, it’s their money.

And for the record, it might be that the IT department doesn’t want you to run your own SSH session for a bunch of very good reasons.

So now I’ll get a special alert when I receive nudes?

Excellent … can’t wait until bot operators find new and exciting ways to use it to get more eyeballs on their scams.

I’d be in favour of removing internet access from the person who prompted the image generator to make these images.
