In the latest episode of ‘Why Can’t We Have Nice Things?’ researchers have discovered a new Rust-based malware charmingly dubbed ‘ChaosBot’. Not only does it teach us that you don’t need to code in Python to cause chaos, but it also reaffirms our suspicion that hackers are just really lonely people trying to make connections—albeit through Discord channels instead of knitting clubs.

Apparently, these cyber socialites have found a way to take control of your PC just by sliding into a Discord server. Yes, they’re leveraging compromised credentials, but one can’t help but wonder if they’d just like you to join their Discord community and chat about coding tips while they casually turn your PC into a zombie bot. Remember, friends don’t let friends get botnetted.

In breaking news, it’s been confirmed that hackers are human too. They too seek a sense of community and belonging. So next time you see someone lurking in a Discord channel with a suspicious name like ‘ChaosLuvR42’, just offer them a virtual hug—preferably with your firewall securely in place.
