    These are going to be the people who think it’s smart to just open up RDP and SSH to the wide web though…they shouldn’t be forwarding ports…they should use a VPN.

      I had to explain to one of them why RDP is a bad idea lol. Thats kind of my point - average people tend to only know enough to be dangerous, not to do things safely. Or as Shakespeare said - "The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.”

        Yeah. This is why you don’t encourage normies to port forward…they make everyone a domain admin and open up RDP…

          Yeah I had to convince them to try RustDesk so they would stop using RDP. Like I said, a lot of people just know enough to be dangerous.
