At what point do we admit that JavaScript was just a bad idea all round and drop it?
how do you even fix it without support from the state or something similar? its a huge architechtural change capitalists wont want to change
why do webpages have access to my fucking ssd in the first place
oh not directly, but the code on the page can do a timing attack to see how long it takes to read and write a large file which can be used to fingerprint your ssd
yeah that’s what i mean. this shit has to be abstracted away, seriously.
complex javascript on webpages is full of holes.
Timing attacks are tricky because a lot of the time people don’t even think of them as a vector.
