Am I getting paranoid? superuser.com/a/869536/172747 two post with spyhunter links :(
 
8:32 AM
Hmm
The answer might be legit, maybe just remove the link
 
@bummi you don't look too paranoid on the video feed :p
 
@bummi Yea..... "while leaving my Mac idle" and in the reply " In addition, it will also modify registry entries and other important settings"
also no name...
 
Wait, the answer is a copy-paste from the given link
 
@JonClements video?
 
@AndrewT. you are more brave than me. I avoided clicking the link.
 
8:34 AM
Spaaaaaam. Or VLQ.
 
@bummi oh nothing... forget I mentioned it...
 
@SPArchaeologist There's Google to do dirty work :p
Search the first sentence
Well, too many copy-paste on other sites, seems spam
 
@AndrewT. "deploy.static.akamaitechnologies.com hijack" searched. All results are classical bogus sites "fix your pc"
no one Kaspersky, Norton or other know AV forum, no know anti malware community.
 
Search "deploy.static.akamaitechnologies.com has been reported as a nasty browser hijacker virus, which can act on web browsers including IE, Firefox, Google Chrome, and so on" without quotes. Some are really copy-pasted.
 
@AndrewT. that only add to the felling of bogus. Using a common server that many will see as a fear factor (name is strange, IT newbies may actually think it is an infection)
 
8:41 AM
I really meant the answer is suspicious.
 
there are actually two answers pointing to spyhunter
this one is also a candidate making me wonder, the link to a commercial solution was covered with a tiny url before the edit superuser.com/a/872965/172747
 
it goes to tenorshare. it's a spam
 
Sam
Morning!
 
@AndrewT. I'm a little uncertain in flagging on SU after a decline a view days ago, SO seems to work a little strict, flagged this one nevertheless, will keep a track on other ones

9:12 AM
I tried to salvage the answers by removing the link, but now I'm worried due to editing many answers on same post
(I suggested once already)
The upvoted answer did mention to beware, so probably I don't need to remove the link
Never mind, assume I had amnesia and already forgot that post

@Bart Point. They have a previous question.
 
@J.Steen yeah, I flagged as off-topic. The question got what it was asking for
 
I should get an account everywhere so I can flag stuff...

definitly
 
9:49 AM
Although. Do more flags help? Isn't a flagged post a flagged post? Except when it comes to auto-effects like spam/offensive?
 
Sam
And it begins...
 
Hey, we've seen that pattern before.

Yep.

Nope, the account is still live, and so is my flag.

Q: I am absolutely OFFENDED

SosukodoI find this new ability to FLAG COMMENTS on StackOverflow absolutely ABSURD and OFFENSIVE! If this is an experiment, I VOTE NO. If this is a permanent addition to StackOverflow, I'd like my account (and all questions and answers that I have contributed) to be removed from every StackExchange web...

 
Sam
Woot, insta-deleted comment.
 
Dammit.
Screenshot!
 
Sam
Ah, deleted by owner.
 
The onebox should suffice, @J.Steen
 
@JanDvorak That's all there was? I was expecting a longer rant. =)
 
10:27 AM
It was a rather short one
 
Ranters today are no fun.
 
@Pham I flagged all the posts as spam. It's really spambait
 
This one seemed like a troll to me
 
He's right though. If I have some time after work I'll be complaining about this new voting feature that seems to have appeared. What's all this reputation nonsense all of a sudden?
 
Has there been a change?
 
10:30 AM
His latest comments indicate he's not really a troll - just seriously entitled and pissed.

Hmm. Food truck on the corner made a killer cheese steak today.
 
@J.Steen That sounds good. Whereabouts?
 
Stockholm. ;)
 
Sam
@J.Steen :O
 
@Mooseman Jeffrey's Food Truck. They do Mexican, Argentinian, and a sort of Churasco-ized cheese steak sandwich. It's delish.
 
10+ hour flight? You tell me if it's worth it. ;)
 
11:59 AM
There's a foot of snow, the food trucks are only out for two hours every day, and in USD (I assume it'd be USD for you, correct me if I'm wrong) it'd be 9 bucks.
You tell me if it's worth it. :p
 
Nearly $1000 round-trip, $9 sandwich. I'll see ya next week. :p
 
glhf
(food is stupidly expensive here)
 
And you're saying it isn't in the States?
If the cheese steak is of good size, $9 is an average price here.
 
It's the size of, say, a Burger King whopper.
But contains more meat. Cause, fast food doesn't.
I had a cheese steak in Philadelphia. It was huge.
And nice.
Just the right amount of grease.

@ShadowWizard I actually don't think same.I think he is just holding back because of others ;)
 
@J.Steen yup, and I fear it doesn't end with ten, total score of newest 1000 would most likely below 0 as well. Like -1800 :O
 
I'll get banned if I let loose.

whole year suspension
 
More, I think.
He's been suspended a while now.
 
So he talked too much?
 
And several times.
He was very... honest in his commentary. =)
 
@J.Steen nope. He posted a comment on December 16
 
user202362
Only on SE - are there so many aggressive older people :x
 
12:31 PM
@ShadowWizard Alright. Then he's been suspended several times. =)
 
@J.Steen yeah, first is for one day, second for a week etc. Makes sense.
 
@ShadowWizard Somehow, I suspect this was a custom suspension...
 
@ShadowWizard Generally, it's 7 days, then 30, then 365. But moderators can also input a custom duration as well.
 
But anyway.
 
12:33 PM
@J.Steen of course, there are no automatic suspensions
 
@DroidDev I've done that. I didn't get the job.
 
:|
 
@ShadowWizard I meant the time span. But maybe not, considering Doorknob's comment.
@DroidDev I didn't want the job. ;)

why bother to go for the interview then?
 
Sometimes you go to an interview, and midway through realise that it's crap. =)
