    This is really bad, but will be fixed. Remember this bug next time the FBI & DOJ ask for "reasonable" encryption. This is what that world looks like every day.https://twitter.com/verge/status/935608582246191109 …

        I don't know much but I do know this. If a human can create it; a human with a massive cloud can crack it. If there are wires; you are vulnerable. Electric co. pulls a signal through the power lines for billing. Process that! Here is a google receiver; ever seen one? Yes you havepic.twitter.com/CH28BBeRV0

        People are acting overjoyed to a software bug like they just won the lottery & they have access to millions of Macs. The big will be fixed and life will go on. 🤷🏽‍♂️

        Please let your many followers know that they can change the root password (or disable the user) to mitigate this:https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204012

        In fact they have to enable it and set password, disabled root accounts are in risk.

        Hmm. From what I saw on my High Sierra machines, the account is already enabled by default but with a blank password. This is different from older versions (where the account was disabled by default). You should only have to change the password

        Is it really bad if someone can’t access system preferences without going through lock screen first? Or can this bug be accessed through lock screen?
