It would be useful to understand the flow of an SMS from a source to a Google voice number. While you can't port a Google voice number, it seems like if you can intercept an SMS from a source before it gets to Google then this techniqu

How does it compare to the Ryzens? In any case, x86/x64 is a terrible ISA and it really needs to go. Sad that it's still around and I'm surprised it can even run as fast as it does.

I don't know about those two scores, but the second paragraph was definitely simpler written.

I think the only real solution is operations that can't fail, like C++ string operations. Of course even those can fail, but do so with an exception, which IMO is easier to deal with from a security standpoint by aborting the process,

If you live in a suburban area like I do, practically every day one of the neighbors has these running. And half the time it's just blowing it to the street to later land on someone else's property.

Was there ever anybody a fan of C style strings? Maybe I misremember, but I think long ago people made arguments that C strings were superior because of how simple they were. Such was the thinking 30 years ago.

The decision to use 0-terminated strings in C may be the single worst decision in programming language history, at least from a security standpoint.
