It's funny really, we have one of the biggest facilities for surveillance, and yet we have systems like these for our healthcare services. Makes you think.

< understands the affliction of a summer cold.
< has had a really long week. It feels like the best part of a month since the French election.

From the rumours <'s been hearing, it's apparently been installed by some big exploit that was only very recently patched.

Well, it doesn't seem to be the case. From what <'s read, it's apparently using an exploit that was patched last month, after some leaks revealed tools that the NSA created that used said exploit.

< wonders what this'll mean for security here, mind. The NHS gets a lot of fanfare over a lack of funds, and yet they clearly need to get their systems updated.

< wonders how much of it is due to funding and how much is due to people not wanting to go through the painful "Installing update 1 of 16, Please do not turn off your computer…".
