2023 is going to be a big year for vx-underground. Besides the continual increase in malware samples, source code, and papers, we also intend on publishing 2 (maybe even 3!) books.

We are also discussing changing the website (again) to accommodate it's growth. Pages are too big and have too long of lists. The website will remain as grungy HTML, no flashy BS, WordPress, whatever. We just need to be better organized.

Have a nice day.

We have closed the Telegram chatroom. Too many people argued, evaded the rules, or continued to express racist ideologies. We do not have the time or resources to moderate a chatroom closely.

tl;dr you nerds couldn't behave and now it is closed.

Have a nice day.
