We caught up on most of our work.

Earlier this morning we posted that YouTube is intentionally worsening the performance of individuals using ad blockers. This has been reported by various media outlets. We have concluded this is incorrectly being reported.
gorhill, the current primary developer of uBlock, has investigated the issue extensively and believes to have identified the primary cause of the performance issues AdBlock users face, why it impacts them, and why it does not impact uBlock users.
tl;dr buggy code dating back to 2014, issue impacts more than just YouTube

Our advice to people who are new to computer stuff
1. Don't take yourself too seriously, have fun with what you're doing and enjoy mistakes and set backs
2. If you don't enjoy something, don't force yourself to do it
3. It's not a race - take your time.
Tomorrow evening (ETA 16 hours+-), all APT years (samples and papers) will be available for bulk download.
You can stop emailing us about it.
Thank you
A Threat Actor referring to himself as Ignacio, also humorously calling himself "the McFlurry Bandit", compromised McDonalds git repo.
It contains a large quantity of source code.
