There are over 213k+ potentially vulnerable internet-exposed MongoDB instances, ensuring that this exploit is web scale.
This is small potatoes for a company that murders it’s employees in cold blood.
MongoDB is normally not public facing right?
It shouldn’t be
How else would you be webscale?
Turns out we were better off piping data to /dev/null
For GDPR compliance, absolutely
/dev/null ACE incoming soon. ;)
MongoDB the company who drives its employees to suicide?
What are you referring to?
The headline misses that they fired her after they demanded she return to the office and she begged for a bit more unpaid mental health leave.
That’s fucked up
Not understanding why I’d need mongodb over a traditional database paying dividends today
The fact that a lot of relational databases now offer document storage does lend credence to the idea, but at the same time you lose so much when you only have document storage
I’ve used it before but couldn’t see the advantage over using JSONB with Postgres except change streams.
Glad I’m backed up in that jsonb solves the same problem
Exactly what I was thinking 😂
“gimme your mongodb url for me to do anything”
- random docker container or tool.
Last example where I was … Annoyed by: unifi. Their management application demands a mongodb.
This has actually prevented me from upgrading it because my homelab hardware was one generation too old for AVX instructions, which are required now. And now hardware is going to be priced out of range for average people.
Anyway I just said fuck it and I’m using the ISP router. I’ve too much other bullshit to deal with. Fuck MongoDB
Maybe FerretDB will work.
FerretDB allows you to use MongoDB drivers seamlessly with PostgreSQL as the database backend. Use all tools, drivers, UIs, and the same query language and stay open-source.
They even have a SQLite backend now.
Try to stay positive, think of all the software still using MongoDB that never got updated after 2016.
One day I’ll learn what webscale means, but it is not this day.
It’s calcium carbonate deposition on your html and javascript
Gross, and I thought Rust was bad enough.

I feel pain just by looking at it, definitely an instance of move fast break
