It's over bro. If they managed to catch a hacker over a VPN and 3 proxies, I'm done, nigga. It feels so fucking nasty that every keystroke is logged, this fucking GDID is tied to my IP, my WinKey and my ms email. Even if you use a VPN windows will always see your real IP. This is so fucking disgusting. And when this whole AI bullshit evolves even more they can actively see the shit on your screen (like recall) and then have your local NPU summarize it and send it back to the MS servers and report it to palantir and your local authorities.

I hate technology. We all need a thinkpad with Linux and a PlayStation 2.

They just read your HWID and tie it to your new GDID and exactly know that it's you. I wonder how many idiots actually use qbittorrent or watch porn on their windows computers

I remember when intel put that unique ID instruction in the CPUs. Slashdot were losing their shit. Dire predictions of what would happen if all the closed source browsers of the day just started handing it to anyone who requested it with no option to disable it. In the end the fuss that was kicked up WORKED. Intel had to address the controversy, browsers had to not provide any mechanism to get at it and in the end it became a fancy asset tracking tag for corpos.
GDID is that but with stealth. It's already in place and Microsoft already have your machine IDs logged because it just phones home with your unique machine ID every time it has telemetry to send back to the mothership. And if you ever signed in to a microsoft account in edge, you bet it sent that ID with it even if you think your local account protects you. And even if you haven't, you think Microsoft aren't smart enough to say "we saw a GDID from 10.11.12.14, and then shortly afterwards a signin from the same IP, we'll just add that GDID to that account with a certainty of 90%."

Holy fuck we actually need schizos like you. I didn't think about that. This is fucking scary and I never heard about the Intel shit. Your browser example sounds horrifying. A VPN is pointless, if Microsoft will just hand out "your I'D" to anyone who requests it. Or imagine Apps will require that for "anti bot" or "security". Am App like discord could request that ID and check if you were ever banned. This is literally 1945 and everyone is brand marked

That """hacker""" that got busted was a complete retard, what kind of genuine monkey brained fucking dipshit uses WINDOWS for illegal shit? Even fucking MAC would have been a better choice, at least Apple have some history of resisting feds to a reasonable degree (at least in public). Microslop just open their cheeks whenever the feds even look in their direction.
Its like wearing a mask with your real name and pictures of your face printed all over it. Genuine madness, windows has this for a long time hasn't it?

If you use Windows after MS tried to push Recall you deseve to be farmed like cattle. It doesn't matter that it wouldn't work on x86, the idea that a company if comfortable with pushing that idea at all is so beyond dystopian anyone with a shred of integrity should have left by now.

Just wait till they find out that Cloudflare terminates SSL!
Or till they realize that glowies control root CAs, so https isn't protected against MitM attacks at all!
Or till they realize that session cookies can be grabbed and that you shouldn't check the "keep me logged in" box!

No it doesn't.
Getting your session cookie stolen bypasses all authentication methods. You could use a Yubikey to log into Google, and still get your account stolen by an infostealer grabbing the cookie.

And it's actually most common cause of accounts being stolen. LTT got their youtube account stolen in that way.
(((They))) just don't tell you, because they do not want you to log out. Of course Google wants you to have the cookie at all times. Google isn't going to tell you to delete it, lol, nor are they going to make it easy. Many platforms don't even give you the choice anymore, they are logged-in always per default.

Back then, during the time of Internet Cafes, everybody knew this.

If you give the VM access to the internet and sign in to any microsoft services (even not on the VM) you are just going down the same path. You have to keep the VM locked down otherwise it'll just functionally be identical to a native install of windows. I'm guessing the windows programs you have to use are cloud enabled shit so you can't just disable the VM's network?

Obviously there's layers and layers of trackers and multiple sources of information. The big deal is that this is a globally unique identifier that follows you that microsoft has already given up to the feds, so it's not theoretical. We were fine with the idea that SOME of what we do is tracked, and the feds knowing that you played MCC on Thursday and Minecraft on Friday is not a scary prospect. But connecting to a VPN to access secure shit and then later finding out Microsoft goes "oh shit, a VPN, better log it against your unique identifier" that's a serious fucking problem. "Just don't sign in on the VPN bro" is no protection anymore.

Braces in adult age, for an extended period of time, fuck over your gum, you get periodontal disease, eventually the jaw bone regresses and you lose teeth. That's why it's usually done with teens, where the gum can take a beating and still recover.

You think you will be getting straight teeth and in the end end up losing them.

>They have to if you use their services and the feds ask for it

this is an inherent flaw of the "product-as-a-service" business model: if everything was on a user's local device and the company providing software had no access, or at least anonymized access (for updates), then they couldn't be forced at gunpoint by glowies to give backdoor access without having the legal defense of saying "a backdoor for one is a backdoor for all" which actually did hold up for apple back when they had their customer's best interest in mind.

your only other option would be to have a service based in a non 14-eyes country, non-russia, and non-china which is very hard

I suspect cloudflare has been doing this longer. I got a computer from a foreign country, it was sold as something that was broken, there was nothing wrong with it other than the reseller not having it's proprietary psu. It had a fresh install of windows with the oobe at startup. When I got online it immediately bombarded me with heaps of those gay captcha shits to verify I wasn't a robot. Never had that experience before, so I can only assume cloudflare is saving hardware identifiers everytime an unrecognized MAC or TPM is detected in traffic.

>mfw freetards on /g/ have stooped so low they are regurgitating Linus Sebastian regurgitating "GDID" headlines and going onto an emotional shitflinging fest without thinking for themselves for one second
Picrel is 19 y/o Peter Stokes, the guy who initiated this whole shitfest of journoshittery. This absolute retard was committing extortion cybercrimes while openly bragging about them online. He was essentially giving himself to the feds. Only after they clapped down on his shit did they get their hands on their hardware.

As it turns out, this titan of intellect, the fighter for software freedoms that not a single freetard regurgitating these headlines (you can forget about them reading the fucking articles lol), had absolutely ZERO opsec. Doing cybercrimes from Windows is one thing.

He:
-used his Microsoft account
-didn't bother with any memescripts
-zero hardening whatsoever
-he did his personal browsing on the same machine he used to extort businesses
-using Microsoft Edge with all of it's default telemetry
After the feds hit up MS, the only role GDID has was to cross-reference the anonymized telemetry data with Stokes. Here's the kicker: if he did as little as installed Firefox instead of using Edge, the GDID cross-referencing wouldn't help the feds out, and even then they already had him cooked cuz dude was this retarded.

Of course all the freetards will just call me a paid pajeet Microsoft shill or whatever their canned response to being proven wrong is nowadays, but remember that whenever they bring up GDID, they are exposing themselves as ignorant Dunning-Kruger retards that blindly believe in journoscum headlines if it benefits their worldview. Lowest form of cattle imaginable.

The feds rarely disclose how they actually catch people on the net. They usually use some BS excuse to cover and use other evidence they find after they seize hardware to convict. There was probably more to the story on how they caught the guy too.

Just like those secret National Security Letter's the FBI sends to service providers demanding info, they were probably trying their best to keep the use of GD-IN on the DL as long as possible. I bet they even used one of those NSL's to get Microsoft to hand over the GD-IN to circumnavigate the warrant process.

There are multiple online games who handle "hardware bans" and password storages by hashing the MAC client side.
And it always sucks. It never works.
Nobody who gets banned is bothered by this, but instead you annoy regular users because some weird stuff resets every time you switch between ethernet and wifi or you get an "logged in from different device" message or other retardation.
The attempt to id machines by MAC got made again and again over decades and nobody ever managed to make this work.

Of course the GDID is a totally different subject that allows much more effective tracking.

Snopes fact checked this, verdict is: Mostly False

The GUID isn't a randomly generated UUID, as one would expect, but it is requested from Microsoft servers. Microsoft MAY assign you a new virgin one on re-installation, or they may give you a different one, but link it together with the old one based on HWID, or they may give you the same one, based on HWID.

So the only way to get a truly different GDID is by getting a new motherboard and reinstalling Windows.

Nothing will ever fucking change.
Microsoft can essentially tell some of these people that they have 37 ways to screw their entire fucking lives up and they just won't care, still using windows. This is nothing that's going to drive a lot more people away from Windows because they're already well past the point of no one liking them. It's all the eternal, perpetual cuckoldry of "I need my photoshop/I need my multiplayer videogame/this thing doesn't work well on linux" and it works and everyone accepts the rape.
The thing about this GD-ID thing is that to me it seems remarkably fucking stupid that people thought that doing a few "tweaks" and disabling a few toggles saved them from practically anything. It is not your system. You do not know what goes under. You being told you have a choice does not mean you have a choice.
