They spend a hundred grand on getting a lawyer, the company instantly declares insolvency, and then Glasss (With 3 s's - Completely unrelated to the previous one) does the exact same thing.



They can discount to 5% since their fees are 10,000% higher than what it's costing them...


So - The big question...

Is the fork going to allow you to change the nginx Server response header (A PAID feature in the current fork...) without requiring you to mod it in and recompile it? :p

Yes - You read that correctly. They refuse to accept PR's to add additional functionality because that functionality is restricted to the paid version :p


You know that random thing you mucked around on Github X years ago then forgot about, and it's amongst 30 other random repos?

Should people file a CVE against that?


EVERYTHING.

Found a missing comma in the documentation of a function? Yup - That's a CVE ;p


In their defense, if the latest version of a module has a CVE, then it's either a 0-day, or an unsupported module.

In either case, you should probably do something about it.


If you read the very article you linked, hCaptcha did the exact same - So they cut a deal.

So they

a.) Moved from a no-click CAPTCHA solution to one that requires you to click images.

b.) Offered a paid solution so you can have your no-click solution back.

Introduce a problem and then introduce a paid-for solution to fix the problem - That's just scummy business practice.

Yea - And they do this since Cloudflare decided to move from a no-click CAPTCHA to one that requires people to click half a dozen images.

So don't you act all innocent Cloudflare - You were the ones who instigated this!


Fake video - Notice the entered IP? Last I checked 164.144.244.247.18 was no-where NEAR valid ;D
