Uh, The Chinese have been using these for years in their e-vehicles, YEARS. Way to catchup to the those pesky chinese people. Fact is China is ahead of the curve on these things and in e-vehicles.
I guess being years ahead of the US in modern tech, including drones with a government made from mostly ENGINEEERS and SCIENTISTS.
Good thing the FBI is knwon to not lie, be truthful, !fullofshit (lol i cannot help myself).
This just in, massive behemouth outdated corporate telecom infrastructure hacked, ClueNN Trust Worthy reporting [PRESENTED BY PFIZER.CLARO.CARTEL.SCHMIT]. writes:
* This hack is unrelated to the NSA PHYBR-OPTIK.SPLITTER ATT SF hack, exploited by the NSA via NSL-2-NOC which piggy backs on the dotCORP infrastructure via SOCIOPATHIC.NYYD by Threat Actor FISA.BS, according to sources.
According to sources CHINESE HAXX0RS have Hacked a DirecTV decoder box from ST, predating 2008 with Leenux Kernel v. -1 (Yes, v. minus-one), and not the kernel 2,3 and 4 shit all over the network. These kernel major versions 2,3 & 4 are totally secure and up2date, says FBI spokes person stating: "Trust Us or FISA_TEH_FUCK_AROUND->OUT".
ClueNN has submitted. a FOIA request to the US Government to find out what we will find out if we FISA around.
According to CVE-000001 and cve-0000000 to cve-202412001; The outdated decoder unit contains a vulnerality after the Boot Loader, where the STB boxes from ST Era and Broadcom SoC are suseptible to arbitrary code execution in $TAKEYOURPICK vulnerable hardware bitsy, which they will vaguely boiler-plate in 90 days, maybe, but if so without any and all useful insight sources state: "The vulnerablity being exploited in the wild leads to arbirary code execution and is actively being exploitedom in the wild by Panda Emails" said to contain the WOKE:MIND:VIRII, politely asking the recipient to dd if=vmlinuz of=/dev/sdd bs=1k then plug the hacking device known as a USB memory stick into the outdated $equiptment or kindly order an N-DAY USB cable from AliBaba, a USB hub and a regurlar USB cable and emailing them back after installing the Advanced Nation State USB technology, providing a helpful click2buy link w/ free shipping."
*The FBI WARNS customers to not click on the cute Panda Emails, citing risk of WOKE.MIND:VIRII infection risks and remain calm on X while Socially-Woke.Media induces a stroke in the Chinese Pandas and their victims as there is no known fix for infected systems, but to to stay vigilant, not click any links and RTFM keyboard short cuts to open the BitMapped Icons from their Desktop.
The hackers, EN.PUDN.COM.GOLDEN-TSUNAMI.CN, thus presents as a clear and present dangerous to the US infrastructure as the operators divide by 0x0 in 0xC1OOee00, and certainly not the outdated ecosystem all over $ALL major telecomes due to op opaque security practices nobody legally can check them on.
THe US FBI at the J Edna Hoover building declined to comment at this time citing national security, adding Trust Us, we know what we are doing - a policy famous for always working out well throughout history, Hunter Bidens Laptop tells ClueNN.
When asked for evidence that it was Chinese PRC MSS PoC||GTFO hackers and not simply the CIA carding US Citizens in wake of the numerous Heroin, Cocaine, etc. Black Ops Financing scandals, ir a desire to carry plastic and not metric tonnes and all the work fidning. a poor, illiterate colored dude from the ghetto to blame as well as the domestic source supply of plastic from Visa, Amex and Mastercard. as well as rumours Rick Ross is escaped from prison using reading skills rendering the 3 strikes conviction as useless lead-ballons, yet metric tonnes more illegal, illegit and unconstitutional.
The CIA, a state sponsored terror organization (by definition), well known for tactics such as REPLACING STRINGS in Malware and Back door code to blame $everyone else, ClueNN was told:
"$HUNTER_BIDEN_LAPTOP.CHYNEEEESE.MISINFORMATION dis dat and propaganda jazz."
Politely also offering ClueNN a on-the-house NSL gift,. ClueNN Declined the gesture citing reporter code of ethics, which prevents accepting letters, national, secure legal or illegal letters of any kind. ClueNN reports adhere to the stricttest propaganda ethics code, specifically, Freedom to ridicule known liars with a history or less than $ANY_GOD_DAMN_CLUE as it is kind of lulz that the infrastructure of all major carriers seem fully oeprational, without any service distrupttion notice to customers, showing how hackety-hack--hacked the serious vulnerablity not at all overplayed with hyperbole and unfounded wild accusations.
ClueNN tried to reach the NSA in Maryland, only to have US Post return our written request for comments with the code 404. Sources at Microsoft are researching what the code means, but crypto experts said "101 101 101 101" when asked for comments. The US Post Office insist the mysterious code is not a virus, but could not provide further details on what this "number" thing and HTTP RFC Standard is, and where these pens they speak of can be bought.
ATT, declined to comment citing the fact that the FBI went up against MOD 3 times during the 90s for hacking telco infrastructure, abusing their wirless network to stay a step ahead of the FBI due to comcerms that land lines were insecure resulting in reliance on Historically Clearly Super Secure Mobile Phones secured by DES cryptography and industry standard Signal System 7.
ClueNN has received reports MOD was a bunch of long haired hippies, so Offensive nationstate sponsored chiense hackers should be routine for the FBI to fail at.
FBI WARNS TELCO CUSTOMERS OF UPCOMING SS7.CHYNEEESE-SIGNAL DANGERS AS PEPPER.DATSUN-SALOON APT hackers have been accelerating their NOT-DAY attacks on Shit System 7 ver Known.vuln.since.2000 by academics wo have studied the SS7 Manual and ctching the very subtlw lack of $ANY ACL in the secure technology designed in the 1980s.
ClueNN is assured the FBI is actively working with telecoms to unplug their vvulnreable shit and format C: like it is 1997, but declined tocomments on how $old+$outdated infrastructure was not patched the last 5-10-ish years, but insider sources in the hackers news community have told ClueNN the entire globe used a known vulnerable telephone system only known vulnerable 20 years, according to RTFM.MAN, an ancident fountain of hacker knowledge only the most 31337 hackers have access to.
ClueNN will satirically do more drugs as this clearly very serious, situation continues...if only kevin mitnick was here now, but sources say mr Mitnick is taking a seminar called Coding PHP w/ Pico and not getting Pwned by zf0, a group said to be linked to the notorious Ac1dB1tch3z, who as the name implies are on acid, hackers and notorious and therefor to ve considered extremely dangerous.
Anonymous AI.Handles ClueNN has totally spoken to tell us we should expect all the ethernet cables to be unplugged $EONS_AGO due to the severity of the bugs not even close to GSM/2G state - a reference to G-forces pulled only by the most elite fighter pilots as MACH 3, duh.
This has been clearly trustworthy reporting w/ substance, at least as much as the FBI has.
- CLUENN Clearly not, jaded, fed up and so past taking the US Fucking Banana Idiots propaganda.
On a side note, the group FBI claims is behind the alleged attacks were inside Gemalto a short while ago acccording to Gelato. Errr, Acccording to Gemalto 2 unknown English speaking government intelligence services were inside their networks, not the Chinese PRC or MSS. ClueNN apologizes for any confusion. Gemalto is the global SIM/USIM supplier of "Trust".
I need to train an AI model to just censor propaganda bs from the FBI and other us prpaganda ministries.
"Encrypted". Emphasis on *transport cryptography! Signal etc mesages can be found in phone memory even after reboot. Someone should really hold a crash course on how to crypto on your devices from FS to messdate data over IP works: *It's not your crypto, but a bunch of others, (strangers, dangers) people's crypto who's __word__ you accept for Gospel (trust us, we know best!:) Not to mention if your packets have reached correct end point and not one the CA just says it the expected one__!*
* You blindly trust a daisy chain of stranger's word that their code and their CA and they themselves are uncrackable & secure. Would you trust strangers insisting on being all in your secure bits?
* Most industry CA based. hardware does not disclose vulnerablities or noice that patches are incoming t the end user, they secretley fix after their lients, your servivce provder typically, has beengiven advisories. Those rarely are givenn to the en dus,t he customer, because of NDA or even lazyness, security by obscurity incomeptence etc.
Smart device encryption is an illusion where your trust strangers with legal/financial or Intel motives to betray it, but call strangers fancy names like CA, ROot of Trust, etc.
The entire ecosystem of trust based device security crypto is to ensure their access to your daa, securely. Not to secure your data from them or the OEM, and TLS padlocks simply means the CA told your app whtever certificate pres4ented is the right one, green lighting you and that endpoint to negotiatie encryption, so for all you know you aor your app could be negotating encryption with the US FBI or $APT.
* CAs do get compromised by attacker, nation states & researchers,, encryption standards do get backdoored, with weak implementations or even kleptographic ones.
q: Why is the US FBI causing panic about suppposed chinese hacking isntead of contacting us service provides who can enable 4g / LTE IPSEC transport, supported by all certified handsets and USIM, yiuelding telecom network infratrcture acccess a moot point since ipsec tunnel is from you to your service provider and their end point.
A: You are victims of on-going psyop conditioninig you to trust blindly!
Do not fall for the temptation: Every part of the daisy chain of trust providers have insentives to screw you over at their whim...and then there is all the code they + you rely on to bootstrap that daisy chain of naive trust..
Gosh I miss the days Google were using pagerank and not whatever the heck kind of crap their service has turned into.
That is quite interesting. Having experimented quite a bit with various psychedelics myself, I find DMT to give the most colorful visuals by far. Curious how DMT is for colorblind people vs LSD. Anyone know?
Not the first time, and also not shocking considering they seriously argument kevin mitnick must be denied touch tone phone use during serving his sentence becuase of the risk of him whistling (i think they meant blueboxing) ICBMs up into the air.
Chuckles me up still, the signalling landline network was long since gone, whistling alone never cut cut and the ICMBs are not ont he telephone network (the turth about those is much more horryfyng than the fact that the FBI nor Mitnick saw the egg on their face arguing about analogue hacks long since dead on the digital networks AND clearly both thought the ICBM silos could just be dialed up on some public number.
FBI have previously used agent provocoteurs to induce violent acts in animal rights groups. Fucking Batshit Insane is what they are pulling shit like this over and over.
..and you crazy americans arm these amoebas?!
What the other guy said, but also depends on the product, part in it, travel, and of course, if there are cool toys - maybe even ones that would be beneficial for a potential applicant who may or may not have their own projects they are working on that may be out of reach to part-timers due w/e reasons. I had a thought like this a while back, but locally most folks with the technical ability to contribute are securely employed.
Is SETI those guys listening with radio telesopes for life signs and did not get the memo that pr definition every solar system by definition has a astronomically large and ultra power WIDE-BASE RADIO NOISE Generetor in them, you know, like the. Sun? Any radio signals moving in and out of solar systems are essentially scrambled leaving ours and entering say wherever E.T. go home? Strikes me as a little problematic to overpower or filter the by far largest and most powerful radionoise generators: For example our sun us so much bigger and powerful than anything we could begin to compete with, thus making listening with radio for radio that bears hallmarks life of being guaranteeed to fail using that method?
Im asking for a friend, me, myself & I.
Tobacco smoke killed ALL my grandparents, well, well one of them would have died from alcohol use, as he was a fisherman and they drink a lot. My uncle died from liver and bowel cancer, the liver cancer stems from alcohol consumption, or rather it's metabolite, acetaldehyde, which is _scary as hell_: It makes cancerous scar tissue of whatever it touches, thats why alcoholics die from liver failure: it becomes all scar tissue and cannot regenerate, which is part of its function (the average adult has a liver 3 years of average age). It is also what gives the alcohol buzz. He was not a heavy drinker, but only drank wine and aqua vit/liquor, 1-2 times a year he would get shitfaced -- he was a funny drunk. I miss him. I miss all my grandparnts, they were the best and did not deserve Emphysema , lung cancer and so forth. Grandma taught me soldering, welding, basic ircuitry, how to ride a bike, composting, growing veggies, all about berries in the wild and helped me save up for my Nintendo NES,encuraged mt curiosity...I would beat the crap out a tobacco exec if I crossed paths with one, a part of me wants to torture them.
I smoked for 15 years, turns out quitting was easy, once you undestood the way the addiction works, but nobody considers that they developed oral fixation from sucking on a potennt noootropic habit forming substance all day,
But then we have Silvy Listhaug (politician): Marijuana will continue to be banned because she is a mom, she told the reporter photographing her smoking cigarettes. I hope she gets lung cancer.
Personally, as a monkey with a lump of fat in my head called a brain, I think drinking fat solving solvents are a bad idea for that reason alone.fMRI scans shows white brain tissue in drinkers literally dissolves over time.
The increase in marijuana use is mostly due to 3 factors:
* Nobody is hiding anymore.
* We become more people every day.
* More & more people realise alcohol sucks.
The UK and CAnada's offcial stance on alcohol is that there is no such thing as a safe amount of alcohol consumption.
The war on drugs is going well in Norway: Cocaine & MDMA purity averages above 80%, Racemic amphetamine is cheaper than hash now, and the hash is good as anything you can find in dutch coffeeshops. ..and it is all getting cheaper at the same time. The war is being lost so bad the police have stopped issuing Narcotics stats 2 times a year as mandated and dropped it to once a year. Last year crystal meth averaged over 99% purity, 99.2%-99.6% according to Kripos Crimelab!! 5000 mafia families in Europe alone funds their organized crime with proceeds from the artificially high price of cannabis caused by the ban, legalizing and taxing it resoanbly would snuff out those and would be a massive blow to organized crime. GHB is fueling a rape epidemic here. Oh and you can legally buy poppy seed and grow them here...
The AP article has one critical thing wrong:
"The DEA’s proposal, which still must be reviewed by the White House Office of Management and Budget, would recognize the medical uses of cannabis and acknowledge it has less potential for abuse than some of the nation’s most dangerous drugs. However, it would not legalize marijuana outright for recreational use."
It is in fact because they were ordered to do so by the US FDA, who by law decides what schedule drugs should be in. It started with MDMA, then LSD, Psilocybin and marijuana. In that order. They signaled the DEA to reschedule all those things because, in fact, they are legitimate medicine and I cannot help to wonder if that started with MAPS (maps.org) applying to do trials with MDMA for PTSD and being *beyond* due dilligent.
The FDA will collect data from any relevant agency whenever something (at least drugs( are applied for $whatever use. I have heard through the grapewine that the FDA were downright furious to learn the DEA had lied about MDMA for years while veterans are killing themselves daily. Much of the DEA data supposedly showed a ton of deaths attributed to MDMA just because a pill with a logo was being sold as if it was MDMA, while in fact it was sooooo many other dangerous things. The US DEA lies about just about everything. These substances are not depency-forming like opioids. If the DEA of any US alphabet soup move their lips they are lying.
The empathogen and psychdelics are not even habitforming: Do you know what happens if you do LSD daily for a week? I do, You can lick an entire sheet on the 7th day and hardly feel a thing, which I know because I have. Israel has been leading the way in marijuana research for decades. 90 year old holocaust surviors inhale marijuana vapor,for PTSD. I find extreme relief from PTSD myself using marijuana vapor: The nightmares stop, and suddenly I sleep 8 hrs a night, a few days of that I almost forget I have PTSD. Then I moved back the "richest nation of earth" (and it can go fuck itself) and essentially have to be a criminal to get regular sleep to function keep a job and not live in a perpetual nightmare. WE have Bedrocan / Bedrolight, but nobody can get a script for it because of all the nonsense authorities and socialized medicine/psychiatry thinks about it. Terminally ill cancer patients have begged to try it and at least on one occasion die 6 days after the news that he got denied died, in hospital from accute opioid poisoning. THey kill cancer patients with opiods all the time.
And WTF are DEA doing with offices in Copenhagen, Denmark?! They set up shop there and suddenly swedish police (SSI) has endless kilos of cocaine to plant and don't want the labs analyzing it following swedish law (the law say to destroy within 3 months of seizure and lab analysis and it has been all over national tv in the Scandinavian nations they Police active tried to stop them destroy man y many kilos of it, 9kg of which they were caught planting.). Oh, and SSI police have a tendency to become cocaine addicts. -All that cocaine with no oversightmakes it an occupational hazard, I guess.
IMHO, if you go to war for me, you deserve the best treatment available for your injuries. MDMA assisted therapy trials have helped veterans I know personally. I stoppped drinking liquor & wine the first time I tried marijuana, 20 years ago. The UN removed cannabis from the narcotics list in 2020, for decades it was embarassing: None of its cannabinoid components ever went on it as no narcotic effect were demonstrated they were listed as psychotropic substances, along with caffeine, psychdelics, nicotine, alcoholm etc. The original Opioum conventions had a clause specifically permitting businesses to have upto 500g for resale in small quanties to adults. That is how Dutch Coffee Shios exist. The UN listedcannabis in the 1930's under the __assumption__ of opium like effects, nobody what was in marijuana until late in the 60s, many years after the 1961 Narcotics treaty.
I am still waiting for the war on tylenol, which has killed over 100k in US a year for decades. Remember when opioids killed 100k a year in the US? The entire world does, yet most people dunno about Iran's struggle: almost half the afghan heroin ends up i Iran, has for decades. Afghanistan makes about 80% of illicit heroin.
This is very exciting, I was diagnosed as an adult. Excellent post and I really think they are on to something.
Windows 95 was only given a TCP/IP stack and "browser" because of Marc going public with it as company, although they copied theTCP/IP stackf rom FreeBSD and somehow managed to completely fsck it into a buggy mess. Internet Exporer source code is a trip worth reading for the developer folks' comments alone, man there is a lot of swearing in there.
Bill G insisted the internet and this web thing coming about was simply a fad till that happened.. Even children understood better as soon as they were let on to it. I should know, I was one, and it was so blatantly obvious, even to me and many of my childhood friends.
Gotta hand it to Mr. Marc Andreessen
They do,or did nobody take a look at the MX pointer's IP after they start using outlook mail protection? NSA has openly admitted they mine emails crossing US borders. Guess where those MX pointer's IPs go?
You are onto something here. I myself have overcome this horrible state and the no alcohol thing is pretty key, along with, some better drugs/scene & the essence of hacker spirit: curiosity. My story is a bit long, but Iam willing to share if it is of interest or possibly even of help to someone. It is a horrible state and not easily solved by someone deep in that hopeless state.
I know a thing or two about loneliness, and overcoming it. It would be a long post to take you through, but if anyone is interested or experiencing it, I can post it in the hopes it can help or be interesting, I already wrote it, but seemed a bit long.
THIS. Politics,
The big money drowns out even an enormous amount of citizens, hackers or not. 8 container ships cannot be a very massive income for the industries throwing money at politicians and would go a long way. Thorium reactors would create new jobs, deal with the problem om storing radioactive fuel rods for millions of years by making them a commodity for a new industry that makes use of them and reduces the millions of years needed to store those down to thousands of years and when we run out of nuclear waste we can continue fueling them with thorium, which is _everywhere_. The air would get cleaner & ther is money to be made.
You would think not that much political will was needed for small, big impact things like that.
Of course, ther eis always the chance I am insane and will wake up from this nightmare in a haze from forcefully administered anti-psychotics via injection
I cannot speak for others, but one hacker did respond w/ ideas for a couple of things he is wondering like crazy about why are not implemented because of the massive RoI. Hackers and technologists shouuld be able to join forces.
Maybe someone brighter than I am can explain why those things are not done post-haste.I am hardly among the brightest folks here, or anywhere. I am just curious about things. Curious, or fiend for that A-ha experience!:)
Hey, I have an idea: How about we retro-fit the 8 biggest container freight ships on earth with nuclear engines like submarines, air carriers etc. have, or even electric ones.
That would cut the air pollution by something akin to the pollution by most of the cars on the planet, combined. Those things run on the worst sludge fossil fuel in existance.
So why are we not doing that?
I wonder because cows do not fart, they burp. And methane breaks down into water within 14 days of UV exposure in the atmosphere, and I like cows.
Another idea is Thorium reactors, they can run on spent fuel from traditional nuclear plants which is mostly _not used up_ and therefor must be stored millions of years. This would reduce storage time to thousands of years, make the spent rods a commodity and the physics preclude catastrophic meltdowns, make it really hard to enrich whatever those thingies they make thermonuclear atomic weapons with.
.. why are we not doing that either?
$0.02
Oh, thank heavens, I am not the only one who thinks the rest of the world are crazy. I have thought so for ... a long time but when doctors started rolling out unproved vaccines to vaccinate in the middle of a pandemic and could not find that class in medical schools, who if you can believe it teaches them to as a tool to use BEFORE everyone are sick.
It also made me sick with a milder version of c19, I had the first round and did not even show the slightest sign of symptons during my 3 day airport hotel quarantine. I infected my entire family, my uncle dying of cancer and half brother+gf from another country, and they all got sick enough to test themselves with positie results and told me to get tested. Days after the lab confirmed I had it again I collapsed carrying groceries up the stairs, hyperventilating on the floor.
+ laundry list of things, including paying consulting compaines for web apps inMS frameworks they demanded more money for to fix when their shitty framework they built things on broke. The most serious incident lead to the compromise of our entire government's portal for bids and contracs on e-things & e-apps. They better ban web browsers and SQL as those things evidently are dangerous things to know.
The problem with this utopian idea from the TS, one I would love if was practical reality, is that that people and their stengths + knowledge differ..and also corp money fueling stupid solutions for their own bottom line. YOu need nation-state resources, planning and determination + brilliant people and a whole education system for it to have even a remote chance of happening. :(
That said, I have always been. and more and more am a firm believer in that infrastructure should be built on open source, and contribute back to it to keep the momentum once it gets going.
OK, I am pretty sick of this, so excuse me for blogging a post, but decades of this crap is getting to me:
Ok some bad actors abuse your bad crappy gear to pwn & spy, but you, Cisco, help your government spy on everyone, including allies, I would call this karma, but the scale you are aiding and abetting the US Gov do it on does not even compare.
Frankly, nobody should be using any closed source networking gear, packet switching infrastructure has become way to important to rely on $corp and $bs sales line they are pushing. I get that you, Cisco, hav nobody to talk to about how you are being abused to aid your own government, that is how National Security Letters work: * Some alphabet soup picks up a phone to the domestic espionage part of the FBI wanting something not legal as of then. * FBI prepares another production of the dog & pony rubberstamp show trial known as FISA. * A whole charade is put on * and in the end the applicant gets to write a letter dictating that $us_company, must do $whatever the heck they want. * Include a gag order * and a friendly threat of getting charged under the Espionage Act (which essentially means you are convicted; the trial is a formality as just about any evidence is inadmissible, on national security grounds, of course.). * Somehow not see the obviously parallel to a circle jerk * Simultaneously confusing me on how that is different from say. China's way of doing things, except more shady and secretive.
Cisco, Microsoft and Juniper should start a support group and call it Whiners Anonymous, not talk about their complicitness in Global surveillance and STFU whenever their shit code gets exploited by $anyone_else... or they could just pay for the damage in the wake of their crap exploding in our faces.
I recall hacker, a dude named Mike, who tried telling you I IOS had memory corruption bugs over 20 years ago. I also remember the absolute denial about it, impossible, did not exist. "Go ahead have your talk at your Con, you look a fool.", essentially.
The Con came and what do you know, a bunch of Cisco lawyers show up threatning Mike, attempting to intimidate him from speaking about this thing Cisco insisted was not possible and did not exist. By then we all knew was very real, duh. Some hackers did not take lightly to the affair and sudddenly IOS source code shows up online: dumped in #darknet on EFnet from cisco.com by someone using the handle Franz. So, yeah hackers can break into computer systems, duh. However, in my experience, those of us who hunt for 0day and develop techniques that turn seemingly small innocent bugs into barn doors you could drive a buss through are not the ones going around causing wanton destruction or espionage onmassive scale, but you can only piss them so many times in the face and insist it is raining before getting a reaction, and abunch of hackers who spend their time in GDB, source code hunting 0day can have a hell of a reaction.
Predating all this, of course, is Mudge & the l0pht gang, who waited forever to speak before US Officials, explaining how anyone with a BGP router could shut down the Internet in 30 minutes and reroute AS prefixes at will, in 1998: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVJldn_MmMY
Mudge would eventually end up in DARPA, a gig I envy, I mean, shit, they invented Internet the web lives on, but WTF ever happened to SIGNED BGP updates?! You know, the fix!? That took a while, eh? I barely knew of him or the l0pht then, except for PHRACK #49, article 4: http://phrack.org/issues/49/4.html because I wanted to read article 14, http://phrack.org/issues/49/14.html. An obscure article then, by now infamous: Smashing the Stack for Fun & Profit. I took up Assembler and C specifically to master what it was describing, seemed so hard then, yet so simple now.
Since then I have watched you, Cisco, get expert advice & warnings from hackers and hire master hackers only to put them to the least possible good use. I believe you put one fella who went by the handle route to write your blog. Another quit and soldy ou back his new company, list goes on.
So, I guess my questions at this point are: * how come you keep shitting on hackers when you mean threat actors * seem to completely ignore warnings from the likes of us and when you do hire brilliant hackers essentially box them up and shelve them * yet year after year, for decades manage to whine like a baby whenever your shoddy, shitty crap code? * Have several decades of hackers trying to lend a hand only to get threatned, ignored or shelved not made your entire board commit seppuku?
I myself remember when a representative from Cisco came to our class to talk about your overpriced MIPS boxes with hw accelerated NIC modules. Security was top priority he told us, faster than any Linux router.
I had simple question about that: How come your devices still come with telnet and require an upgraded support contract for SSH when the UNIX world + clones all have that for free? Somehow his pause to think triggered another question in me: Did you just compare hardware routing to software routers when you claimed superior speed? I myself has leaned more to the BSDs, FreeBSD especially because of how stable, simple & flexible it was to me, with easy to read kernel code too, reading it is how I picked up coding kernel modules in general. While not perfect, that flavour of open source systems was superior simplicity and stable networking, but I did come up on Linux, Slackware to be exact. I have endured mockery and weird looks from many growing up doing that, including my class mates when I took my bachelor degree. They soon understood I was on to something since I just reset my VM of $pickAnOperatingSystem while they all were reinstalling. W2K Domain Controllers come to mind:)
Anyhow, I digress: I went and got a box from class, a couple of hardware accelerated NIC modules, which was assembled and ready2go by the time his stuttering stopped. It smoked that thing he clinged to as secure, fastest, yada yada. I will note within years that SSH thing changed for the better, though.
A few days later I get called into the head office to get told the Cisco representative had tried to get me expelled. For a second I was worried, after all my government was paying tens off thousands in tuiition for me to go to schoo baked on weed and pretend I learned things I already knew from years of doing things the hard way, until they assured me they had no intention of doing so, because of course, I was right and proved them wrong.
I ditched Windows as soon as it broke and I got beat up for -after all my Mom had VB homework and it was mere days since I used the computer she used daily, of course I was at fault and at age 11 beaten by a grown manand told to fix it: the garbled characters on thescreen was not the win95 logo. Turns out it wasrather simple, but not wanting another beating i partitioned of 250MB and booted slackware using a diskette with LILO. Probably the best decision I ever made for myself, but I bring it up because I have had it with huge ass corporations bitching about their expensive stuff breaking because they did polish the turd before shipping.
* So, is denial not only a river in Egypt, but corporate policy along with threats and intimidation at Cisco?
Not much has changed since then, except the cuter naming of things, like IronPort Email Gateway my own government uses that might as well be called Buggy Port with all the easy ways to sneak stuff past it. Ordinary people like myself have no choice but to put up with out tax dollars being spent on crap with bugs and backdoors up the wazoo, not to mention the effects it has on us when it breaks.
Whatever the case may be, after 20+ years of acting like a bitch whenever your crap blow up in everyones face, could you please SHUT that PR Campaign of whining the fuck up? Either you suck, or you are doing this on purpose, and it is not like hackers have not tried to help you out for over 25 years.
HEY, Cisco Microsoft can bond over that, after all they denied the existance of security bugs until 1999 when finally CVEs started coming out and now number over 7000, but hey, anyone could mislabel a Doormat as Defender and accidentally steal lots of peoples code to parse file headers and manage to screw up the copy/paste, after all that seems to be modus operandi ever since they did that to the BSD TCP/IP stack. How do you manage to mess up a copy of the free, premier networking stack of the day? I guess Bill was in a Rush because MArc tuned out to be serious enough to put his company sporting some thing called Mosaic (whatever that is!:) on the stock exchange, eh?
To add insult to injury we pay sales reps posing as consultants to setup and run all this crap, so is that endless PR complaining of whining like little bitches really necessary? Could it not be either or?
I am so sick of the endless bull shit from Cisco & co I could go on for eons, but I am hungry and need to get my bake on, but i really hope a meteor shower strikes all of Cisco HQ, and would not cry if a Tunguska even sized comet hit MS in Redmond, except may from joy.

So MANY things:
* "I've heard" is a nonstarter, I have heard lots of things, like that there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, Santa Claus, etc. Do you take all your information about lurking dangers by hear-say? Anyone can have a psychosis, just stay awake for 72+ hours, hey presto.
This chilling of public discourse has lead us to routinely do absolutely dumb stuff: Since WHEN did we IGNORE dangers instead of studying to understand, not ignore and think we just can avoid them cluelessly? This suicidal concept of ignoring a danger + "just say no" crap is insane, in fact, suicidal! If we identify a potential threat we should study it and make it easy to research and insights free of political stupidity should be easily available. Oh right, we kind of do... It just takes _a lot_ of reading:
* https://maps.org - I recommend LSD: My problem Child. By one Dr. Albert Hofmann. It is available as a free download on PDF, legally.
* Critical thinking, LEARN IT.
Read and understand the subject matter.*
LSD-25 refers for the base form of the compound of Lyseric Acid Diethylamid, the number 25 refers to the extraction # Dr Hofmann performed from his experiments on a fungi found on several crops that provide the key ingredient to bread. LSD is a psychotropic substance, not a narcotic. It had promising use in psychiatry treating many illnesses, such as alcoholism, it does not however form "Manchurian Candidates", quite the opposite. Most people become kinder. more considerate and if you give it to soldiers, they toss their guns to play in the grass and trees. There is a british army video showing exatly this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=776lDlNopJU
LSD can come in several forms. LSD is also known as Lysergide d-tartrate, MM120 patent merely patents a fast delivery vehicle in consert with therapy. They use Lysergide d-tartrate, a form not new since last millenium. LSD itself as well as commonly known solid forms, such as tartrate cannot be patented. As any child, the ones we are fond of has many names:
https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Lysergide-tartrate...
The patent itself is not on LSD (lysergice d-tartrate). It has existed for a long time. again:It is on the delivery mechanism, a melting tablet, and the therapy treatment that follows.
LSD-25 refers to a liquid base form as it was extracted in Dr.Hofmanns 25th extraction. It is then in liquid state. Most substances are really refered to in base form without a qualifier, this is often completely wrongly used. I will use a more familiar illicit substance to demonstrate:
* Cocaine means cocaine base (an oil), often called freebase as it is derived by freeing the base from the hydrochloride salt thus returning it to the original cocaine oil form, or "freeing the base". Not water soluable.
* Cocaine hydrochlorde is the nose candy. Once bound to the salt of hydrochloric acid itforms Cocaine Hydrochloride , which water soluble and sniffable.
* Crack is simply freebase made by freeing cocaine base from hydrochloride salt in a boiling water solution using electrons from baking soda. Crack refers to thesound the rock makes as it is heated because it is an oil and has tiny droplets of water inside of that "crackles".. Throw oil in a hot pan and drop some water droplets on (careful). Crush and dry the rock, no more crackle sound and crack -> just calcified base cocaine (freebase). It is made by putting 20ml of water in a small glass in a water bath and letting it reach boiling temperature. 1g of cocaine is then added and let simmer a minute before the small glass is swirled around. The Cocaine HCL melts at 98C when dissolved in water. Now the oil has to be captured and moved into the same place. 0.3g of baking sdoa is added and the glass swirled until you see all the oil lumps collected in one place. The baking soda has free electrons easily availble a this tempterature, so we borrow some, Once cooled there will be a rock, solid at room temperature. If you taste the water, it is salty because the hydrochloride salt and most of the baking soda isleft behind. The rock formed inwater and thus has tiny amounts inside of, which causes the crackle sound that gives it the name Crack.
* You can simply dissolve the "crack" rock in acetone and react with hydrochloric acid and Cocaine hydrochloride will appear like a blizzard. 1g (free)base, 20ml acetone, 5 drops of hydrochloric acid, 36% is enough(home depot), stir gently 4-5 times and stop the second the blizzard appears, it is Cocaine Hydrochloride appearing from the clear solution in front of your eyes, it is magical.. Let react 1hr. Filter off and let dry. Hey Presto: Cocaine hydrochlorde (the kind you sniff).
* Same goes for Methamphetamine - base is liquid, crystal meth is d-methamphetamine hydrochloride. D refers to the Dextro enantiomer is the stereoisomer (meth)amphetamine- THe other one is called Levo. The Correct wording of (meth)aamphetamine is really therefore DL-Methamphetamine / DL-Amphetamine. Both are oils before being salt bound in an Acif-Base reaction. Typically Methamphetamine, often dextro-methamphetamine, is reacted with hydrochloride acid to form salt. The DL forms will always be powders since mirror images of molecules (stereoisomers, DL) don't fit to build crysaline structures seen in d-methamophetamine hydrochoride aka methaka Crystal, etc. Since it is all dextro enantiomers the salt crystals can stack and build crystaline structures aka "glass" aka "shards".
While the above example uses the Acid-Base reaction as vehicle to show how a molecule can be changed back and forth, there are many methods one can make solid form from liquid base. A tartrate is a salt or ester of the organic compound tartaric acid, a dicarboxylic acid, which is what they react the liquid base LSD to make lysergide tartrate or LSD tartrate OR lysergid tartrate (crystals).
Likewise LSD can be bound to any number of salts, etc. Any powder-form will be LSD+something. LSD is commonly found as a tartrate salt, which is water soluble. The Acid-Base reaction came to mind, but I digress:

Samples were prepared at 250ug in liquid solution under the rand name Delysid, in liuquid solution. It works wether you absorb through tongue, skin, nasal membrane, eat it in, drink it, in base, salts or disolved liquid forms. LSD is sensitive to light, oxygen, touch, temperature. Since we are told it is 240ug, aka 250mikrogram, we know that they have taken the water soluble LSD-tartrate weighed it and dissolved it in water. The brand name was Delysid.
The Sugar Cube provides protection from all that as well as a natural preservative, the blotters...no so much? If it comes on blotters, if nothing else it is degraded. Some of us pick it up in cute little bottles.
The man behind "Turn On, Tune In, Drop out" also got the federal ban on marijuana overturned - in his own trial over a frame-up. They forgot they framed a Harvard professor, a Dr. Timothy Leary, and not "some acid junkie". Marijuana has since been demoted off the UN Narcotics list onto the psychotropic substances lists, there are 3. LSD exists here, along with MDMA, Caffeine, Alcohol & more.
Most of the horror stories you have heard are absolute BS or stem from the psych wards they locked patients in cells on jumbo doses. It has Criminally Insane Assholes (CIA:) written all over it.
Commonly distributed by blotter sheet, sugar cubes, microdots, and dripped on candy. AFAIK lethal dose in humans is not demonstrated. It is remarkably non-toxic to our health and active in the most minute of doses.
There are non hallucinogenic LSD derivates like bromo-LSD that are shown to provide relief to cluster headaches.
Many variants have appeared on the black market, 1P-LSD being exceedingly common, some things sold as LSD are highly toxic, nBOMEs, for example.
It does not make you a zombie, murderer or even those eggs in that pan on your american healthcare-via-idiot-advertisement (eggs: this is your brain.on drugs:). In fact, YOUR brain LOVES DRUGS. It runs on them. Serotonin, Dopamine, bla, bla, and in fact doses you with opioids all the time, we call them endorphine, but really it is just morphine we call endorphine since "endo" means that it is made inside of us. I guess that makes us all junkies.
You of course realise Tylenol kills over 100 000 people a year in the US alone? That is the numbers of deaths at the hight of of the ! "opioid crisis", which is..well Iran lives next to Afghanistan which produces 80% of the world's illocit heroin. 40% of that ends up in Iran and has so for decades. THey have a opioids crisis, one ongoing for decades now. Bayer, famous for their Aspirin product, invented it and heroin, just 11 days apart!. Chemically known as diacethyl morphine, 11 days apart. It was marketed as Oover-The-Counter (OTC) Cough Syrup for Children without that habit forming morphine.... You can treat heroin addiction using Ibogaine assisted rehabilitation.Ibogaine is another, powerful hallucinogen and makes for a introspective 24hr trip, it is not fun. It also helps kick-starting the natural enforphine production the heroin abuse shut off. You should look up the 3D version of the molecule, it iis insane and as off last I checked we have no chemical way to mass-produce it.Ironicallyopium poppiees can be legally grownwhere I live, you can buy the seeds at your local gardening shop. Mostly grown byold hosuewives for their flower. Nobody does it for the opium here.
My $0.02:
If you can do it safely, I highly recommend it. It is great, but there are other great psychotropic hallucinogens. I prefer N,N-Dimethyl Tryptamine. What is safely? Excellent, you are finally asking the right questions.
I have had amazing help from LSD, but also great joy and fun. The inside tip on why psychedelics work is simple: It allows you to thread a new path instead of that one you are stuck on. This is where the THERAPY comes into the picture!:) In other words it makes you more susceptible.
You may have a fearful horrible trip, but that is likely an indicator you did not follow the rules:
* Set & Setting - Mind SET and trip SETTING. - and tripped recklessly.
* Read up on the drug, trip experiences, lab rapports. * Be well rested. * Have a sitter. * Keep a stash of tranquilizers(xanax:), just in case someone panics and ruins the trip for everyone else! Most people will have great experince if "set & setting" rules are followed!:) * LSD MAY NOT BE FOR YOU, NOBODY IS FORCING YOU DO TAKE IT!
* You can check your LSD purchase with labs such as Energy Control to verify you have the real deal. They take bitcoin.
I like my trips inside, comfortable coushy seating, good music and absolutely no god damn un-muted cell phones. It is a 7hr-ish ordeal and you can feel having bent your mind when it is over, so I like to take a few valium and sleep.. When I wake upi make or ormyself a mega breakfast and venture outside to take in how "new" everything feels. I prefer Light surroundings, preferably daylight when tripping.
I recommend reading Tom O'Neal's book CHAOS, it will shed ligh on much BS around LSD and blow your mind.
Ignorance is dangerous & stupid.
No, some are just on Vyvanse or Dexedrine!:)

So many questions!
Did you reduce the cyber space to a web app on the Web? A small part of cyberspace that lives on two ports of the 65536 afforded by the 16 bits of port adresseing each IP, 4 or 6, reliably communicate with the internetz using, confined by RFC standard to 80 ans 443 by hyper text transfer protocol definitions, depending on transport security applies or not?
If not, what is a cyber security backend? a NoC DashBoard that looks <something> assumed to be as defined in <whatever>? Because assumptions are how we end up with universally easy to exploit bugs that require little to know insight to underlying layers or even the most basic insight of what defines a bit or what does not in every unit .. multibits? thats a mouthful. Bites? Call the unit Byte so we do not confuse the unit for food and the cyber security for eating.
Assumptions and not being able to define questions to ask and measures to ensure are met to find those questions. While ML may sound bling-bling to your boss, his field is running the business or a defined aspect of that business, from a management aspect very often. Not understand your field, you are. Security starts with knowing how the things that make up the infrastructure used by said business and how that works, in fine detail. Finer than most high level python requires of the ML framework crowd - data quality is king.
Not uncommon python scripters ML or AI scripters have partial pictures or understanding; they do not concern themselves with what actually makes up the 1 or 0, though most understand we measure bite size chunks of them called bytes and multitudes of it. Their idea of where "cyber security" rubber meets road is often high level and abstract, far removed from physical reality or practical operation.
Did you expect a comment field to sum up a way to be impressive in a firece and highly complex field even nation states and tens of thousands of ph.d with untold billions buudget and near inifinite reach of budget and resource cannot figure out?
The only shortest and also incomplete answer is buzzwords only impress only the ignorant.
Mastery of your field more then the rest of means 0day ability. Spender and GRSec tried protecting from 0day lacking the insight that brings it, with predictable results. Poor guy.
Inbetween lucky hits, it temporarily kept skiddies out and then needed updates.
Maybe my old friend's wisdom of old age and experience will be of comfort, lord knows he said to to spender a lot:
"0day can happen to anyone."
As for me, I am but a fortune in a cookie; you cannot describe the unknown unknown, if you could 0day could never happen to you.
p.s. I am a sentient fortune & look forward to you answering my questions, as I must ask you how i dispose of this cookie corpse once i experience my first answer(s).
Oh so juniper dont let Not Smart Assholes receive compromised firmware in netscreens for dgital hw and crypto industries overseas no more? SUpport portal information would be an improvement then!:)
Phew, then FISA is just some imagined rubber stamp used on NSLs, whatever those things are. Surely only applies in the domestic USA and it is not some kind of open secret about Juniper Netscreen devices I was implying or anything. Assumption also famously not the mother of any one fuck up in history, ever.
The fact is most encryption is backdoored, but more and more by way of implementation not kleptographic backdoors. That can be summed up in some math, more over ISO+world+dog have seen weakened math from the NSA who cleverly publish field manuals admitting to doing it over and over and never working. Implementation specific buggery hidden in plain sight takes skill or flouride in the tap water. Fact is most commerical cell phones, commercial routers, computers all have that sort of thing. Just ask Cisco, who will deny IPSEC was weakened for the NSA and FBI. RSA BSAFE, CtyptoPhone from Crypto AG. NagraVision.
Apache_scalp.c was a clever orchestration that likely shook Theo De Raadt to the Xanax Core when GObbles GOBBLED about it on openbsd.org using historical (un)hidden references. Fact is if you can audit it and you do not have the prerequisits needed to have an informed audit you should assume you know nothing other than some stranger wrote some code that claims this or that.
Applebaum. oh that kid with DOWNS who think some sexual harasment fictictional scandal will convice everyone the US Navy did not invent Tor or Pick the buggiest most exploitable browser on earth to make sure the criminally stupid in fact do get caught by the SHerlock Holmeses in the an agency that in fact did inspect Brothels for the Federal Government in the start aka the FBI?
y so srs? It is not like the Navy has ship mounted lasers that make plasma on the sky and convincing idiots there are UFOs flying around by heating the plasma differently to replicate CRT TV Technology .. FROM THE PHUTURE?:)
There is a saying amongst old aunts here that sums it up: Blissful & ignorant.
We pump oil up form the Sea we fed off and keep pumping up sludge primarily known as that shit we put led in before and pride ourselves on not putting lead int he GAsoline or Chemical Diesel anymore. We dump mining waste into the fjords. When Norway made an electric car, "Think", it looks like a moving box on wheels out of it's Exes place to go kill itself. So dense the Criminally Insane Agency & the Not Skilled Asswipery both outsourced spying on us to Sweden. The swedes found it so bad they had to hire Denmark to avoid not killing it's entire population.. We decide smoking kills and just write that it does so on the pack and remove all branding before increasing the tax and keep on selling it in grocery stores and call it health improvement - even the Morons at the Criminal Division of the Federal Brothel Inspector's call that daft. Our politicians know everything is fucked so they drink more than the sum total of the entire Americas and wonder why young women come to the old man meetings known as Political Party meetings.
NORWAY MADE A CAR THAT LOOKS LIKE A RECYCLED STAPLES BOX THREW UP AND TURNED INSIDE OUT _BEFORE_ doing so.

..and they STILL WONDER WTF WENT WRONG!
Daft.
I have mostly horror stories for you.
I am native, and we do have oil, fjords blonde and .. misc. people that number a fraction of saudia arabia. All is not idyllic, most people like me die many years before reaching my age. My story is one that should have long since died and thus not been told. Tragic, cruel & ironic in the worst ways from start. TL;DR and a bit of a downer, so short short sunny version:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOKAS_robbery
^
One of those guys is the closest I have toa father figure, the police forced me to live in his town under his roof Norway: Where junkies keep you drug-fre, the criminals get you your first degree, bribe you with ADSL, weed and a higher education and the government agencies break the law & fuck you legally up for life.
- the 65M NOK still missing. We had paper money then, polymer now. They still ask them where the money is after having served 1.5 decades of time and changing the form of fucking currency we use.
Like I said sunny, if somewhat omitting most shitty events leading up to that, and more recent ones. It gets really bad, most people I know of facing those teens and early adulthood died .. 20 years ago. That age. Then again most people I know stuck with MS and windows despite living through the 90s aka the bsod inferno. I took up linux, bsds, programming assemblers, c, perl + misc scripting, binary exploitation and other very normal things for people that age from that background surrounded by violence and junkies.
It is very dark for those who are vulnerable, especially the under age and do not have my ability to make rocks envious pure stubborn refusal to take up heroin or participating in the national pass-time of death by self-inflicted liver damage and or cancer from its metabolites.
However, I am an optimistic fellow: I was hoping the Norwegian Political & LEgal Establishment died proving me & my assertion wrong. Drinking organic fat solvents produces industrial carcinogens as metabolites - both of which pass the blood-brain barrier - and not only a dumb idea, but infact is making them dumber..by drinking more and duying painful deaths.
