Remember kids, don't ever plug something in to your computer that you don't trust or are unsure about. Picking up flashdrive off the street and plugging them in is one of the easiest ways to get malware installed on your computer.

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 78 points 11 months ago (3 children)

That's why I take mine in to work to plug in.

[–] thirdmouse@lemmy.ca 53 points 11 months ago

to a coworker's laptop.

[–] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 25 points 11 months ago

Gotta test it on the expendable company network before you take it home.

Previous work got USB sent to them via post and they had to access the data on this drives. These drives came from end customers, so they had two computers specifically for the purpose of retrieving images from the USB sticks and burning them on CDs.

[–] Igloojoe@lemm.ee 35 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Theres also usb drives that are designed to short circuit your computer. Frying the motherboard.

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago (3 children)

USB Killers are expensive though. No one's intentionally ditching those for randos to find

[–] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Expensive is relative. You can find a sketchy USB Killer on AliExpress for like $6.

Maybe expensive as a single throwaway device, but not very expensive to cause pure chaos to a bunch of random people.

Are they? I thought they were basically just a few capacitors hooked up wrong to a USB port.

[–] uis@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Capacitors alone are not enough.

[–] CephalonKappa@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Capacitors a transistor and an op-amp. Thats a couple cents of components.

Inductor and diode.

[–] uis@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Why would they? Simple boost coverter costs about 0.5€.

[–] Pons_Aelius@kbin.social 28 points 11 months ago (1 children)

one of the easiest ways to get malware installed on your computer

Only if you are the child of an Iran nuclear engineer. (cough stuxnet cough. )

If not, visiting .ru porn sites is much more likely to lead to infection.

[–] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 41 points 11 months ago (1 children)

visiting .ru porn sites is much more likely to lead to infection.

I did that once. Now it burns when IP.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Are you ever coming back with those cigarettes?

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 13 points 11 months ago

It’s also the easiest way to distribute malware

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 11 months ago

Disconnect storage, disconnect network peripherals, boot live CD, profit?

[–] Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago

But FREE Robux. LOL don't plug in stuff

[–] TurdMongler@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago
