I left a messenger app open once. My cat sent my boss about 500 dots. It came up as super rude, about 2 hours before that I had asked him something and made it clear that I was awaiting a response.

Is it at least their cat?

This is a great security feature. Is it an app?

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 37 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, it's a cat. You can tell by the ears.

There used to be an app that was a cat. It was almost definitely spyware, though.

I heard some phone did that, but laptops as far as I am aware neither windows or MacOS supports it maybe some display-manager on Linux with custom patches would do it.

Windows has so many settings in local group policy editor for passwords, I'm sure there's a way to detect failed attempts with a script in task scheduler and take a picture. I don't know how myself but it's probably possible. Idk about Mac. And for Linux, you can probably have it install a tracker on the thief's phone over bluetooth...

Damnit man... Were the bots really unnecessary all along?

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago

Looks like the threadiverse needs an arm fetching bot too

Imagine someone holds the cat while trying to crack the password

[–] where_am_i@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Have you ever tried holding a cat?

[–] Dmian@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

“Password is not ‘hoominstoopid’, damn!”

S/he was probably trying to online order cat food

[–] elscallr@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

The cat food is probably always there. Kitty was trying to buy nip on the dark web.
