I think everyone could use a lighthearted/happy story right now so here goes: At the beginning of the pandemic I went through some painful personal stuff and would often go out at night for long walks because no one was around and I couldn’t sleep anyway. One night I was walking

Elf on a Shelf is a surveillance training tool. Banned in my house.
We just watched Elf with my youngest for the first time. We laughed, but she didn’t get most of the jokes. Hopefully it goes better for you.

I did that with glue once. My project for work really sparkled.
US military also buys app location data. That’s why vendor contracts are increasingly demanding single country data access and storage, to prevent leaking of military/government personnel data.
Today's digital advertising based on selling user data to the highest bidder has been called the 'largest data breach ever', and yes: Two firms who sell targeted+mass surveillance to governments are hoovering phone location data from the ad/rtb bidstream: forbes.com/sites/thomasbrews…

It’s troubling for sure and should be illegal if it isn’t.
Have you seen Tron? It might be possible.

A friend and I took the same class at the same time, but two different teachers. He wrote papers and had pop quizzes. I had a couple of easy tests. I got an A without trying, he got a B. Very subjective and not worth the stress.

Here's how hackers are now hiding malicious payment card skimming code inside CSS files on the compromised e-commerce sites. #tech #infosec #cybersecurity #100DaysOfCode #programming #DEVCommunity
After finding skimmers in SVG files last week, we now discovered a #magecart skimmer in perfectly valid CSS. It is parsed and executed during checkout. Malware loaded from cloud-iq[.]net (faking @cloudIQApps)

Why is school more stressful than most jobs?
10 years after graduating college, I still have dreams that I’ve skipped entire semesters of classes and can’t catch up/ forgot to log onto final exams/ can’t remember my class schedule. What does it MEAN??

It's exciting to see Encrypted Client Hello coming closer to reality--one more tracking vector on the way to being squashed. Still a ways to go and lots of testing before real-world use (spec is not final).
Over the last few months I've been helping to move forward the Encrypted Client Hello extension, which brings full handshake encryption to TLS 1.3. Making deployed crypto more secure is hard, but rewarding work. Follow along here: blog.cloudflare.com/encrypte…

The original TEE used to include Lux, and there are plenty of commuters into Lux from BE, FR, and DE, plus CJEU is there, seems like it could be easily added and is odd it wasn’t. But maybe the cost/benefit isn’t there...

I noticed it goes around Luxembourg on all sides, ouch! I wonder if that’s to protect Luxair’s short-haul flights?
