@tinker - #Keeper has threatened to sue security researchers in the past, including Fox-IT.

Wonder what other security vulnerabilities are in Keeper products that they wish to hide through litigation?

Bad idea! #Keeper , a password manager bundled with Windows has a security flaw. Security journalists reported on it. What did Keeper do? Sued the journalists.

Fuck Keeper.

An "NSA backdoor" proposed TLS extension finally turns up inthe wild: in random Canon printers that fail to work with TLS 1.3...

As the blog post points out at length, gee this spy stuff can be super mundane.

I'm always amazed at when I discover (through other people's research or my own) vulnerabilities in core aspects of networking that harken back to the earliest days of networking.

Back then, we just needed things to work. Didn't realize how much we would depend upon the net and web for our daily lives.

If it works, that was enough. No mind for security built in.

Had a chance to talk to high schoolers and early vocational school students (information security tracks) about hacking and pentesting. Spoke to two groups and walked them through a tabletop of breaching a company.

A lot of enthusiastic folks. A lot of great back and forth! That was a blast.

@Miller_Geek @icefox there's a huge environmental component imo - it's one of the reasons that I try to be more vocal about how sparse my knowledge is on some of the things I work on, to try and help destigmatize not knowing now kinda

She was talking to the supervisor (because of course she was wasting everyone’s time by complaining at some poor woman instead of just shipping her package) and gave me a death glare because I totally undermined her argument that everyone was lazy.

In conclusion, Baby Boomers are the most entitled, spoiled brat generation and don’t ever let anybody or anything tell you otherwise.

@Elizafox If we had a fairer justice system, where the death penalty was being applied to Hitler or Bin Laden or Mengele, sure. But our justice system sucks.

I buy that it's a waste of time to try to rehabilitate some people. But to me, the potential extra "justice" from death penalty rather than life in prison, even when warranted, is a lot less than the extra injustice from the death penalty being applied far too often.

Oh Eris. Wow. Mudge posted a link to this. This is intense. I can’t download the python script linked in the post yet. If anyone grabs it, let me know:

Ive had a friend in NC loose their job today. It looks very likely they were fired so that their employer could stop carrying their autistic three year old on the corporate health insurance. A child who lost an eye to cancer and is now recovering from said cancer. Their shopping for legal advice. If anyone has resources please let me know.

Oh hey! The following states have joined the lawsuit:

-California
-Oregon
-Vermont
-Washington
-Delaware
-Hawaii
-Iowa
-Illinois
-Massachusetts
-Kentucky
-Maine
-Maryland
-North Carolina
-Mississippi
-Pennsylvania
-Virginia

If you're worried your state won't join the lawsuit because it's red, Mississippi was 58% red in 2016 and Kentucky was 63% red. Contact 'em!
