Good Morning Nostriches Today I just listened to the #darknetdiaries episode 161 with MG. He is a hardware hacker and produced one of the first commercially sold USB-cable with keylogging, wifi-connection and static or dynamic payloads. Absolutly wild anyone can just buy his clables now for around 300 Euro from any shop listed on his website:

O.MG

Maby we need to learn to distrust USB-cables, when we did not buy them. Companies which care about security will have to mark their cables, when they are trusted. I am curious how we will deal with this stealth attack. I have several USB-cables plugged into my computer all the time. How about you? #security #opsec #hack

#privacy #arguments #security #politics In this Article some great arguments to reconsider privacy intrusions of any form. Whoever is sometimes struggeling to convince others about privacy, may read this article. I probably will do it several times.

Dismantling the "Nothing to Hide" Argument

We have to get active. Speak up to politics in your country if you are #EU citizen and value #freedom ! How we can do this: Write an email or letter to your local politician, why citizens privacy needs protection. And why it is important that democratic representatives as politics and police have to be transparent. Ask them if they give you their password, of the email account, when they have nothing to hide. Since chat control is literally this packed in other words. View quoted note →

Vielleicht müssen wir lernen, welche techniken den Persönlichen Wifi-Abdruck signifikant verändern, um dieses Tracking zu umgehen. Könnte aber auch eine Möglichkeit sein um die reichen und mächtigen zu tracken. Denn Wifi-Router sind jetzt nicht so kostspielig. Überwachung ist keine Einbahnstrasse, welche nur zur Unterdrückung genutzt werden kann. Überwachung ist auch ein wichtiger Kontrollmechanismen einer Gesellschaft um die Mächtigen und Reichen zu sozialem Verhalten zu zwingen. View quoted note →

Just as @Den Yellek was one of the first people reacting to a comment of mine. Defnitly first reactions matter. Since then I would try not to miss any chance to welcome new users I get so see. View quoted note →

Most operations in live are irreversible or one direction is exponentially higher in investments. For example is it much more work to forge a drinkingglass than to destruct it. Or encrypting a message is a small amount of work, while decrypting it without the privatekey is a lot of work. #asknostr So which drection is the easier one? To treat a person with respect of humane rights, when she did not have them before. Or is it easier to take away the human rights from someone who has them? Since my #prediction would be that the answer of this question will define if the world will be more free or more restrictive longterm.

Think your live in a betting game. Where every #decision is one #bet And whoever gets the most right bets with the highest stakes will win the #game :

Such an important part of a free society. Make everyone aware of our intrusive status quo and say there are tools to fix this. You do not have to wait. But to inform and change for more privacy respecting services 🙌 View quoted note →

Ein spannender Artikel zu manipulativem verhalten. Wohl aktuell durch Donald Trump berühmt geworden. Doch die strategie ist keine Seltenheit. Und ich denke umso mehr diese Strategie kennen, desto resilienter ist die Gesellschaft dagegen.

Maby good to repeat, that geo location data are among the most precious data to sell. Since once they know your profile it will be very easy to fingerprint you over different devices and for a long time. Since physical location patterns usually repeat a lot and are very unique to one person. I mean how many people in your house work at the same place during the same time and have the hobbies at the same time and place as well? Probably no one. View quoted note →
