sounds like it's not as bad as it initially seemed or that they fixed something. addresses got leaked though, and maybe votes can still be invalidated?

do we have a brexit thread in yospos? i feel like this is going to be a deep vein to mine in future

https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-55475433

quote:

References to decades-old computer software are included in the new Brexit agreement, including a description of Netscape Communicator and Mozilla Mail as being "modern" services.

The document also recommends using 1024-bit RSA encryption and the SHA-1 hashing algorithm , which are both outdated and vulnerable to cyber-attacks.

i think you may misunderstand who the fbi’s boss is for the next few weeks

or where their enforcement priorities are

the fbi is an institution that wants to remain relevant and therefore backs and relies on establishment power

they feel free to move against trumpers since all those institutions (formal and informal) have all indicated it's biden time

trump could ask them for a diet coke and he wouldn't get it lol

Implement a "one strike and you are out" hiring policy for information security employees. When they fail, do not let it happen twice.

Also, never hire an information security employee who has ever worked for a firm that has had a security incident. Their "industry best practices" did not work for the previous employer, why would they work better for the next victim? These former employees bring disaster.

lmao, never use any soldiers with experience, you must only use untested fresh recruits or those who got lucky

I was always surprised that the Somali Pirates lasted as long as they did. Seems like it would be easier as a private shipping company registered in the bahamas or wherever to just hire some us/russia trained mercs to kill the pirates and move on then to worry about negotiating with them. not to mention that shipping crews would probably just start arming themselves.
piracy only works if the pirates have guns and their victims don't.

yea sure im a cargo ship operator and im gonna learn gunfu and artillery trajectories instead of just paying off the pirates

good quote at the end, any ideas what this would have been:

legal authorities prevented the app from being covertly used for a longer timeframe.

I'm assuming there was some kind of legal statute for how long you can spy on your own people, or there was a legal case that finally made it through the courts
