Update your WinRAR because hackers are using this flaw to sneak malware onto your PC WinRAR 7.13 recently dropped with a fix for a nasty directory traversal bug in older versions, and ESET researchers have now shown just how bad the flaw really is.

Autocorrect is my guess. Look at where the letters in "fly" are on your keyboard relative to "fight".

Yeah, the original game doesn't have a single person in it at all.

Myst. I understand the importance in terms of CD-ROM technology but the game itself is a complete snoozefest and I never really cared for it.

The feature is being slowly rolled out, so you may or may not see a location sharing option. I also got a popup when I opened up the messages tab about it.

Personally, I'm pretty happy where it's at right now. I've got the more geeky stuff over on Mastodon and I don't really need Bluesky to act like a worldwide replacement for X (which I dropped 3 years ago). Big enough to find people I care about, small enough that the nazis are easily blocked.

VILE: Exhumed may be banned for sale, but I refuse to let that stop people from playing the game.

Itโ€™s now available, for free, at WWW.VILEISBANNED.COM

Please share the site, share the game, and fuck anyone who tries to control storytelling and expression.

VILE: Exhumed is a game about searching through an old computer, uncovering dark secrets, and experiencing the horrors of parasocial obsession and misogyny. There are references to sexual assault and violence against women, as well as depictions of gore โ€“ this was never a secret. This was the point.

It was intended to be released for sale on July 22, 2025 on Steam โ€“ the largest video game storefront in the world.

Instead, it was removed from Steam and banned for sale.

VILE: Exhumed was not banned for its use of gore, or its intense themes โ€“ themes that are sensitive but many players related to โ€“ it was wrongfully banned for โ€œsexual content with depictions of real people.โ€ 

The game covers topics of assault, abuse, and entitlement, and uses a combination of FMV and practical effects to create images as horrifying as the themes. This was never a secret. There are a lot of intense visuals in VILE: Exhumed, but there is no uncensored nudity, no depictions of sex acts, and no pornography whatsoever โ€“ which is one of the justifications bad actors are using right now to censor games.

What this actually results in is taking power and storytelling away from women, other marginalized artists, and ultimately, from everyone.

This censorship of my work is a direct attack on creative expression and artistic freedom, and it will not stop with false accusations of sexual content.

They will come for anything that speaks more loudly than they do. 

By giving the game away, for free, to whoever wants to play it, I am doing the same thing I set out to do when I started working on VILE: Exhumed, a game about sexual assault, male entitlement, and misogyny. Taking back my agency. 

No one is allowed to dictate what kind of horror is acceptable, or what stories are allowed to be told.

VILE: Exhumed is now available to download for free as shareware under a CC BY-NC-ND license through a few different methods on this page. This felt like the best option to make the game available to โ€ฆ
