because many people are uncomfortable with change and having women suddenly appearing more frequently thatn their use to upsets them. You’ll find this fear of the unknown a very common source of much stupidity.
You’re not over reacting. It is that fucked up. welcome to the insanity.
Side note: did you mean to say “shot themselves in the root”? I love it either way.
ssh its better with the typo. ;)
#no thank you lol
we’re probably talking about different things. virtually no distribution comes with root access with a password. you have to explicitly give the root user a password. without a password no amount of brute force sshing root will work. I’m not saying the root user is entirely disabled. so either the service OP is building on is basically a goldmine for compromised machines or OP literally shot themselves in the root by giving root a password manually. something you should never do.
We have it at my company its just a very small group and we have to manually enable it for production and its through tools like teleport. Staging and the like its free game there for them for debugging, same infra through. Gives us best of all worlds
Most distributions disable root by default
dude stfu and enjoy it. I love when that shit happens to me.
