Open-source arguments, DDoSflare, & Day:Break
Lighthouse IT Solutions, Matthew Almendinger

LITS bits:

This week, Matt and Griff discuss the growing dispute between WordPress.org and WP Engine over their contributions to the open-source project vs. their monetization of it. The internet domain .io has seen a spike in popularity from tech companies, but a potential upcoming change in domain ownership could also cause other unexpected changes to come. Cloudflare was thankfully able to thwart the largest DDoS attack ever, perpetrated using a series of compromised home routers. Finally, another set of major vulnerabilities has been discovered, and a patch has been released for another set of routers, this time Draytek; make sure you update your router with the latest patches.
