I only know of one CA that absolutely makes sure of this - certum - and that's probably because their cheapest code signing cert is €25, so it would be trivial to test

fun fact: every major code signing CA mandate that your private key is stored on a certified HSM or similar, but multiple CAs (including DigiCert and VeriSign) do not actually verify this from experience

and before anyone mentions using virustotal, it's a minimum of five digits USD for using it in a commercial, automated capacity - and I doubt I can get that greenlit for something that happens three times a year and is solved in a couple hours

for how much of an issue "oops false positive on our software so it's deleted by antiviruses" is, no company offers a free (or even simple to order) command line scanner so we can actually check before releasing software

like, I'm sorry F-Secure is deleting our software, we had literally no way of knowing before release

@ben although not quite the same, I definitely know of games which has patched glitches *except for very specific situations used by speedrunners*

Basically a cursed if statement heuristic that swaps between a broken function and a fixed one

reading the buttplug.io dev guide and it's a hoot

"Assuming the user will approach a piece of software that involves Buttplug in the same way they would, say, a word processor, will end up in a fuckable word processor. If that's what you were aiming for, great, but otherwise this will just end up in a frustrated user and something that looked like a cat walked across the keyboard."

@monorail the wii tweezers was bridging RAM to move the protected addresses to gamecube accessible memory ranges, since they could run gamecube homebrew using old exploits
