Yes. Do that. Thanks to the TSA, I can now open any luggage without traces. Saves a lot of time. Don’t have to enter 123456 anymore.

Pool on the roof must have a leak

If you answer these three questions...... Say no more Mr. Sphinx!

123456!

There is no exclamation Mark!

No.

This is completely different and unhackable. 12345......6!

They only did the right thing after getting caught openly doing the wrong thing, so I'd say I'd still be pissed.

They should have never put the system in place with such a simple vulnerability (which to me) says they take such a laxodasical approach to security that I wouldn't trust them even now.

Speak for yourself, I'm holding out hope that the universe is actually a little fair, and that the dolt responsible to creating that password, and subsequently fucking over millions of people has their testicles ruptured. Who are these idiots?

Back in my day all the social engineering was done to humans.

Love, secret, sex, and god.

All I see is *******?

I forgot what it was referring to and searched a bit

I don't know why you are getting so many upvotes for being a liar. Tried it on Lemmy.world and it doesn't work. I even tried it with a capital H.

I don't think you were quite grasping the scope the McDonald's operates at. That's only a couple hundred per location, and fast food restaurants tend to have extremely high turnover, so that's definitely not an unrealistic number.

ETA? Estimated Time of Arrival?

One of us doesn't know what that stands for. I feel like the time my grandpa died, and mom sent me an email telling me "We're going to the funeral this Friday to pay respects to grandpa. LOL!"

I was quite confused. Turns out she grew up with "Lots Of Love". For a second she seemed like she turned into an absolute psychopath, for like....no reason.

They have over 40k locations. Many are 24/7. They also surely churn through employees, have many part time employees, and probably get many more applicants than they hire.

The employees will be hired by the franchisees but they still use the McDonalds software.

Millions is not a surprise to me at all. Perhaps that it's tens of millions is a little surprising, but it still seems within the realm of possibility.

i mean there's a shit ton of unskilled labor out there whose vertical reach isn't that great.

They pay well everywhere but the US.

If the class action I found online is the same one. My old shitty job tried to implement biometrics and dropped it around the time of that class action. What a coincidence. So thanks?

Sweet, now you can buy a big mac or a happy meal! Not both though...

The bitlocker code for the desktop I sometimes use at work is 123456789. I asked IT who was the idiot that decided that was a good idea. The CTO apparently.

You just know new hires there must have to watch some anodyne video about data security that mentions secure passwords too.

I did something kinda similar when I applied. Why put effort into remembering a new password when I was only going to use it once to fill out a job ap? Wants anyone even going to do with my account?

I help folks with disabilities get jobs, so I'm familiar. I generally avoid fast food for my people, because it's degrading and no one really wants a McJob. That being said, the bot actually makes it easier to apply, and they immediately schedule an interview...because they don't care what your resume says and they just need warm bodies to throw at angry customers. Again, I avoid it for my folks wherever possible.

"Hacker" doesn't always imply one acting with malicious intent.

The risk is that some unknown hacker discovered this vulnerability and abused it before the researchers discovered and reported it. It sounds like the company has confirmed that didn't happen, but they aren't 100% trustworthy in that regard, simply because they might have missed something.

The difference in terminology is simple..
