BONK!

Police can lie and say you had a weapon.

There are some working on making open source processors. These being fabricated in a similar way to modern silicon dies.

But also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eo8l7HP-9U

You can make your own processor, it might just be a little (!) less powerful than what you’re used to.

I know the point is PRIVACY, but I believe if we put effort toward it, these obstacles can be overcome. Then we can move closer to full privacy on our computers/phones.

At work, you’re better off being a procrastinator or just generally slow. If you’re fast and reactive, you’ll be called lazy when you’re sitting there with nothing left to do 😤

Too broke to boycott. So I boycott everything, every day. Is it working yet?

Chainmail. Serves as a faraday cage. Also defends against physical attacks.

Veeeery interesting 🫡 Thank you for posting

I guess you needed a /s at the end of my comment. Apologies.

My joke was that I have such a strong desire to read long walls of text, that I was looking for one where it did not exist. Maybe my joke was too many layers deep to be perceived as a joke…

Escaped the matrix just to come crawling back… to a different kind of matrix.

I tried to expand your ellipses. What’s the rest of your comment say!?!?

This is where I would blurt out the obscure fact and then realize I heard them wrong

“Did you know that figs are pollinated only when a certain species of wasp dies inside of it?”

“Wtf are you talking about? I said TIG! I’m certified in TIG welding!”

That’s wild… how’d he get the email client to send the NTLM hash? That’s the real story, there. If you can remotely pull sensitive files like that, you already own that computer. That’s an email client vuln, not an issue with the method of encryption.

Actually what is sent is the user’s LAN Manager (LM) or Windows NT LM network authentication challenge response, from which the user’s LM or NT hash can be computed.

Oh… that’s not good. I’m guessing the client was Outlook. In which case, Outlook had a vuln and that was the issue, not the encryption. Or maybe it was windows itself which was vulnerable.

I skimmed kind of quick, but it sounds like Kevin used html email to embed something that loaded from a server he owned. That gave him the target IP, he then did some kind of NetBIOS request where windows sent the NTLM challenge response. That was apparently vulnerable to cracking in such a way that revealed the actual NTLM hash of the windows user being emailed. Then THAT hash was crackable to reveal the actual password of the user.

Not totally sure I read that right, but wow, that is an old ass vuln for windows to still have as late as 2017.

You exchange public keys and then email using your recipient’s key to encrypt it. Only they would then be able to decrypt it, using their private key.

PGP is a thing. Still… Trust no one.

There’s video of them loading into the uhaul, and the cops made sure to blur the faces of the nazis, but nobody else.

Uhauls are made to have padlocks placed on the door… Just something to think about.

I believe you will find that these people are just being paid to do a job. What you want to find are the people paying these sign wavers.
