In 2021, for example, a security vulnerability in the printer spooler was found that allowed attackers to gain system rights. System rights are one level above administrator rights and allow the installation of arbitrary applications and almost unlimited changes to Windows settings.
As new patches had to be developed for several months to close the gap, it was finally given the name "Print Nightmare".
In Windows 11 24H2, Microsoft has now integrated the Windows Protected Print mode, or WPP for short, which was announced some time ago. It replaces the manufacturer's drivers on many printers and at the same time prevents the installation of new printer drivers.
This is intended to prevent malicious code from entering the computer via the drivers. It also ensures that the common tasks of the printer spooler are no longer executed with system rights, but only with user rights. In this way, Microsoft is closing the security gap that led to the Print Nightmare.

Under US law, fair use means that copyrighted material is allowed to be used if the result is considered "transformative." That is, the resulting work must be something new rather than it being entirely derivative or a substitute for the original work. This is one of the first judicial reviews of its kind, and the judgment may serve as precedent for future cases.
However, the judgment also notes that the plaintiff authors still have the option to sue Anthropic for piracy. The judgment states that the company illegally downloaded (pirated) over 7 million books without paying, and also kept them in its internal library even after deciding they wouldn't be used to train or re-train the AI model going forward.
The judge wrote: "Authors argue Anthropic should have paid for these pirated library copies. This order agrees."
