I don't know what you ate today. It would be insane for me to confidently claim that you ate two bananas and a pizza today.

The burden of proof is on the person making the claim. That's the basis of empirical research.

This is evil in itself.

Outbid is just sad. People pay money to get on a slop board?

We got IPv6 just so people can dot the exact same dumb shit with it that IPv4 forced us to do.

I'd argue that complexity is not even the right word to describe what the author describes. Thickness or depth is more accurate.

> On its way to the customer, the invoice was intercepted by an attacker, who then manipulated the account number to their own advantage.

How did the attacker gain access to the email? Most likely they breached the account of either the sender or the recipient. In the first case the breach should be on the sender and they should pay the damage. In the latter case the damage should be on the recipient.

The only case where this has much to do with email security is when an email server is breached.

This whole article is a lot of words around very little information.

You won't get this, otherwise we had tons of LLM written photoshop alternatives already. And if it would work, that would be a good thing.

> I walk to the local phone shop and get a replacement sim for my number with a few of bits of ID and I regain sms access.

Or someone else gets access to your SIM by sim swapping you, which is not as stupidly easy as it used to be, but still SMS remains insecure. Building an authentication system on it is just a bad idea from virtually every angle.
