All of you using Windows XP or earlier are vulnerable.

On Sunday, MalwareTech was one of many security experts warning that a less-vulnerable version of the malware is likely to be released. On Twitter, he urged users to immediately install a security patch for older versions of Microsoft’s Windows, including Windows XP. (The attack did not target Windows 10.)

Obama is not smart enough to understand how to use his telephone, let alone understand how to use a computer. The only virus he might understand is an STD that he might get from his boyfriend.

Hmmm...the NSA "tools" get released, it targets OLD operating systems, spreads via the internet, gets paid via bitcoin...ALL things "they" want control over.

Microsoft wants people to stop using their old OS and get their new one... The government wants control over the internet... Bitcoin competes with dollars and can't be tracked...

This will be an excuse to mandate upgrading to the latest OSs. It will allow the government to put controls on the internet...for OUR security. And the rogue crypto currencies will not be tolerated...only the bank approved will be allowed.
