@cheuk173 @buzz_video_buzz Considering that I have seen real cases like that in Singapore, Japan and Korea by Chinese tourists, there are definitely mainland Chinese who behave that way.

@vxunderground This, but it also depends on the kind of work one wants to do. A lot of software stuff can be self taught, hardware stuff also, to a lesser extent. I find where most Internet nerds fall flat at work is when a job requires postgrad maths daily. Not all, but most of them do.

Yeah, so basically the reason why nerds who work on computers are so weird about universities and stuff is because of the weird cultural shift that occurred when the internet really started booming
Historically, universities were the only places people could get high quality information, labs, advanced literature, etc etc. They were higher education institutions.
When the internet exploded, more and more information was dumped online in extreme volumes. Suddenly, in just a few decades, there is more information online than in universities. Universities no longer possess the elitism or secret knowledge or information they once had.
Of course, for argument sake, some exceptions are still place, such as for healthcare. You can read all you want about surgery online, but you need to attend a university to get formal training.
Anyway, when cybersecurity first popped up, universities didn't really have any material on it. They did, but it wasn't like it was online with forums and stuff (IRC, whatever) where information was pouring out every day. The problem universities faced was how fast information traveled.
The information taught in universities is relatively old. In the age of the internet information is fast. Lightning fast. Everyday I see new malware papers being released. It would be virtually impossible for a university to keep up with this pace.
So, the other thing is universities have structure and stuff. Being an internet nerd does not require structure and stuff. Many cybersecurity nerds thrived on being an autodidact and self exploring.
When the autodidact nerds find a university nerd, there is a cultural divide whereas autodidact nerd thinks university nerd wasted their time and money and could have learned it themselves.
University nerd sees autodidact nerd as someone who (probably) doesn't have an education or feels a bit elitist because they graduated from a university. The elitism they feel circles back to the historical stuff with universities, the secret knowledge, the alumni, etc.
Ultimately, nerds can do whatever. Old heads and new head autodidact nerds will thrive and be driven by curiosity forever. Doing this requires immense self discipline and being infinitely hungry for information.
University nerds may feel the same, but may feel lost without guidance and are more reliant on structure. University nerds can do well in our field as long as get their feet wet in university stuff, then continue self education outside of the university.
Neither is wrong per say, just a different learning style and preferred method.

@YogSoth0 @vxunderground For Australia, NZ, even some parts of southeast asia a million USD a year is not unheard of, for small dental practices that are doing well.

@vxunderground Revenue shows $ 1.000.000
Five people only?

@Autist_Maximus @AzraelTheLast @vxunderground @jsrailton Majority of them use android, look outside the USA, especially here in Asia. Even though it's not to the same extent in the EU, a majority use android there too.

Today the United States sanctioned Sergey Zelenyuk, and his company Matrix LLC, notably for "acquiring at least eight proprietary cyber tools exclusive to the United States government".
Want to guess what those tools were? See image two!

@Autist_Maximus @vxunderground @jsrailton This is not true. Look at Asian politicians (whether North Asia or Southeast Asia), most are holding Samsung or Huawei devices in public photographs.

@vxunderground @jsrailton Why are iOS exploits cheaper than android exploits?
Especially when iOS users are usually bigger fish?
