Security & Hacking: "Malware Targeting Windows 8 Uses Google Docs"

http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/malware-targeting-windows-8-uses-google-docs

Snippet, "The latest version of Makadocs does not connect to a C&C server directly, rather, it uses Google docs as a proxy server."

I have always been leary of Google Docs, not because of Google, but because if you use it, you have to trust everyone that can save or modify the Docs.

You have to trust them to be not only non Malicious, but non Stupid, which is a much higher bar.
