GM 🫡 Yesterday's #FREEDOMTECHFRIDAY had Pavol Lupták on flag theory. He gave up his Slovak residency but kept citizenship, and now borrows euro stablecoins against Bitcoin on Aave and Morpho at under 1% instead of taking a salary. No income, no tax. Worth a watch if you missed it. Listen: Show notes: @MaxUM @Seth For Privacy @Ungovernable image

Flag Theory with Pavol, live in 1 hour. 9AM EST / 2PM UK. Freedom Tech Friday 62. @Wilder co-founded Paralelní Polis and Nethemba, runs Liberation.Travel, and lives flag theory across nine jurisdictions with his tax base in Asunción. We get into how that works, non-CRS banking, living on borrowed euros instead of selling bitcoin, Europe's squeeze on cash and privacy, his privacy stack, and AI. See you there. @MaxUM @Seth For Privacy @Ungovernable image

Researcher Joshua Michael says he pulled the 300,000+ Flock locations straight from Flock's own systems, using an authentication token that had been left exposed. No hacking involved, just an open credential. View quoted note →

PHP runs roughly 70% of the web. Scanners have counted around 884,000 internet facing hosts still on PHP 8.1 or older, plus 740,000 reporting no version at all. Researchers expect mass exploitation within 15 minutes of the patch going public. If you run anything on PHP, patch it now. View quoted note →

GrapheneOS duress PIN wipes the device the moment it's entered, by design. Once triggered, you can't hand over a working phone, and the wipe can't be reversed or stopped. View quoted note →

GM 🫡 SF from Noderunners Radio joined Friday's show. Their jukebox began as a Telegram bot driving his Spotify account, now it runs on self hosted LNbits with a 7.5 terabyte library and 21 sats a track. He also walks through the FM broadcast plan and clears up what actually happened with Breez in September. Worth a listen.

GM 🫡 Yesterday's Bitcoin Brief: a hardware hacker found a Trezor Model T bought on Facebook Marketplace with its microcontroller swapped out, rigged to only ever generate phrases the attacker already knew, plus a soldered microSD card to fool the integrity check. It's counterfeit, not a Trezor supply chain issue. A good reminder to buy direct. The Ledger fallout is also in the full episode. Listen: Show notes: @MaxUM @Ungovernable image

More Compromised Hardware? The Bitcoin Brief 95 is live in 1 hour, 9AM EST / 2PM UK. Joe Grand found swapped microcontrollers in two off-channel Trezors, producing recovery phrases known in advance. Ledger gives its full account of the CryptoBilis implants, blaming an organized crime group, and unveils Atom, a phone with a protected wallet mode. Plus Lopp's wrench attack archive passes 700 cases. @MaxUM @Ungovernable image
