oh cool, the hackers' almanack from def con 33 is out... and seems like they think policymakers should know about our snitch puck research?

(i agree, naturally, but the outside validation is nice)

this is the kind of relentless pursuit of the truth that i've come to expect from @404media.co, really holding power to account with this one. journalism at its peak. thanks folks

there's no technical difference between "MS yields keys for CSAM warrant" and "MS yields keys of political activist"

it is the weekly computer security meetup at CTRL-H... so yes, it's about those things. actual exploitation does sometimes occur, but think more "santa's workshop" than "conference workshop": it's pretty chill and unstructured. but don't listen to me, you should come hang out and see for yourself! 🖤

i mentioned my account on one slide at the very end of my 45-minute DEF CON talk and that's also had a few geniuses on the youtube video scrambling to comment about it. particularly enjoy the double-feature "upset by bluesky" and "confused by gender" thread

It Looks Like a School Bathroom Smoke Detector. A Teen Hacker Showed It Could Be an Audio Bug A pair of hackers found that a vape detector often found in high school bathrooms contained microphones—and security weaknesses that could allow someone to turn it into a secret listening device.

EFF is always so proud to represent security researchers doing important work. Our Coders' Rights Project often works with DEFCON presenters, and two of our clients are presenting today about schools, bathroom vape detectors, and audio recordings. www.wired.com/story/schoo...
