The headline claims "All RDP Scanning on the Internet" but the article says they only had data from their observation grid, not the entire internet.

Not true as it's impossible to measure such a thing. But it makes sense that these numbers are what they are because ipv4 addresses are expensive.

The article explains exactly what it did measure and what this does not mean:

Every number in this post describes attacker activity reaching GreyNoise sensors, not confirmed impact on third-party environments.

Why? Why would I read an article that should be summarized in a headline? I don't have time to read 100,000 words a day

"Oh you should have read the 100 point fine print on our billboard instead of believing the 10000 point text"

What the fuck part of me not wanting to read a clickbait article makes me have a disability?
