If you're using a WD My Book Live-disconnect it now

Post by paddlefoot »

Multiple users reported data loss coincided with a factory reset that was performed on their devices.

From Western Digital: "We have determined that some My Book Live devices have been compromised by a threat actor. In some cases, this compromise has led to a factory reset that appears to erase all data on the device. The My Book Live device received its final firmware update in 2015. At this time, we are recommending that customers disconnect their My Book Live devices from the Internet to protect their data on the device."
