Just people scanning randomly.

Do you scan people randomly?

This isn't my first rodeo i know how it works.

i'm talking about volume. Way up recently.

Don't know about you, but my machine has been attacked several times, causing damage at one point.

Has your machine ever powered on and logged onto the net by itself?

Have you ever been unable to turn your machine off without unplugging it?

Would you consider that 'paranoid' too?

i was on several blackhat shitlists before the internet even was a thing so 'paranoid' is hardly the answer.
