It's an electronic circuit. That poo poo can actually break. I presume my ISP is a cheapskate in that regard, or whatever. That said, one replacement was because they stuck some more of whatever provider information is on there, needed for proper operation, because with the older one, the phone wouldn't hop onto the HSPA network. --edit: Also, SIM format changes. I went to get proper ones, instead of cutting these down to fit whatever SIM slot du jour.

I've had a SIM die on me before. Now if my e-SIM broke, THAT would be a feat.

Luckily for those with PA gear it seems that this one was fixed in the same versions that fixed the last one, so anyone who's already handled that last one shouldn't have anything to worry about.

Does anyone have an opinion on running phishing simulations, specifically whether suppressing Gmail's security warnings on messages sent by the simulation is good or bad?

Send it so it appears trusted. You do not want users to learn to always look for a machine learning applied "this might be phishing" banner, instead of looking at warning signs like the body of the message, wording, what it's asking for, mouseovering domains, looking at email domains, etc.

I don't know why it never occurred to me, but one thing syzkaller does is make it easier for people to discover potential security issues, as is demonstrated by this FreeBSD use-after-free leading (local) kernel execution privileges, which was found by found by syzkaller on March 19th, fixed on the same day, and between March 21st and March 26th earned theflow0 $10000 by chaining it with a webkit exploit to jailbreak the PS4. This also comes after Andy was mistreated by members of the PS4 community for not releasing a "proper" 0day - to the point that he basically quit, because he didn't want to put up with their petty entitled behavior.

What's so special about Apple's T2, that it's considered entirely uncrackable/unhackable? This comes from a (hilarious) news article about the newest MacBook's displays breaking, if you just just have a shim, just slightly thicker than electrical tape, over the webcam. In the comment section, everyone's going like "T2!", saying that the webcam and microphone are routed over that security chip and therefore everything's safe. (The activation LED is apparently directly hooked up to the webcam's power supply, so if you enable it, it will go on. The same time, there's apparently a security paper that talks about this and how you can enable the camera for a tiny fraction of time only to take an image, which makes the LED barely blip.)

It's this one: https://www.macrumors.com/2020/07/10/apple-macbook-camera-cover-warning/ Seems the slightest amount of pressure on the display, after creating a rather tiny foam pivot point, will break the display unit.

So that's been an issue for a couple of generations now that we have seen. I've seen some companies ban the use of any camera blockers other than black tape. On another note. There is an abundance of easy to obtain camera jacking scripts that don't enable the LED....

I assume they only work properly with older Macbooks? The claim was that in the newest models, the LED is looped into the power supply of the camera, so when powering it up for use, the LED is forcibly going on.

I'm guessing on some of the older ones they're single-frame grabs that then turn off too. IIRC newer macbooks will hold power on the LED for a while longer to prevent this
