Looks older: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=45903 So if Seth Rich used Chrome, it might have incriminated him. If someone got the physical flash drive he was using. Or he uploaded a .tar file that preserved the extended attributes? But the 4chan spergs who went over the DNC Leaks would have noticed something that big. And it gets better: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/CommonExtendedAttributes/ I swear, these people are a menace. According to the same madmen who gave us the modern desktops this isn't a security problem, a privacy violation or even a bug. It is a feature. According to that bug, this started on Mac and was added to the Linux version. No note saying it was added to Windows. If anyone still runs that legacy security nightmare, it would be good to know if it has or doesn't have this anti-feature.
