You understand that there is difference between US law enforcement and the intelligence community? And that all service providers are required, by law in almost ALL countries, to respond to legal requests from their governments? What you a

The original research project this company looks based on was very cool and way early: https://sandlab.cs.uchicago.edu/jammer/

I'm super excited to try your service and the KiCad plug-in to move supply-chain dialogue closer to point-of-creation makes a TON of sense. That and the speed seem to be the two points of differentiation from Macrofab, who is my curre

That is actually what my company built. The primary purpose was for encrypted messaging, but it also acted as secrets store and password manager. The great thing about it being built into the keyboard is there is no chance for a rooted hos

Good stuff! If I remember correctly there was company at Defcon selling memory cards that had this feature built into them a couple years ago?

The wonderful thing about our current culture is that each side thinks that further empowering the federal government is the solution. And it will only be used by their side against their enemies (other american citizens). No thought at al

I can't agree with this enough and yet I think the long term danger is masked by the current problems for the majority of voters. I'm not hopeful.

If I remember correctly, ADP and the other big payroll processors sell your income data, as do many of the finance apps that get access to your bank account data. They also have your rent and mortgage payments typically. It's not alw

Is a partial collision an indicator that it could be broken? The "we broke it" seems an exageration, but maybe that's a failure of my understanding.

yes, because the last century of communism showed that it was really just capitalism where centralized power corrupts..

If your threat model is the NSA, moving to non-US providers actually lowers the barrier as they no longer have to deal with the US constitution and US citizen data. If your threat model is law enforcement (or border/customs, et al), mo

A sort of related question, is the user able to actually power-off the baseband carrier chip and still keep the phone powered on? I seem to recall there being some 911 regulations around that topic. But it might be a way to enable the use

You don't need an ID to buy a SIM in UK? I remember not needing one a long time ago but in recent years was asked for one.. maybe not a law? irregularly applied?

I think the regulations have some loopholes for domestic use, but one I don't know how they can really get around is for international roaming, as other countries have far stricter KYC laws. Domestically you can buy a Tmobile or Cricke

Good luck! It's a tough sell and some people won't accept that there are people from the defense sector that really care about the Constitution. Transparency is proly your best friend. But once you sign a Qualcom or carrier NDA,

This is an very user-powerful feature. WHY the fuck would they disable it? It basically gives you two buffers, middle click for dynamic selection-paste. repetitive-chunks of text can use the more cumbersome ctl-c/v. I've been usi

Last time I played with Moremicro they didn't work with real 802.11s and had some hokey proprietary hierarchal tree topology that required a main basestation gateway. ad-hoc, peer-to-peer was broken. They finally fixed their driver?

I live in Chicago and it is a BIG city. I've seen, in real life, none of this. But the online reports are legion. I think, like a lot of things, you can choose what reality you want to inhabit and find anecdata online to support any of

I'm confused, is the assertion here that this is the first time silicon valley tech people and their companies got involved in partisan politics? Is it really short memory or selective memory? example: https://www.theatlanti

No, most don't. I've used that approach in the past for privacy and in recent years most services started blocking it with no alternatives.

The easiest, fastest way to hack this together would be a raspberry pi zero with a display hat. It'd be chunky, but it would keep all the TOTP shared secrets off of other less reliable devices.

I'm a bit confused.. are people suggesting that the poor pay in the EU is a _good_ thing? These aren't lawn maintenance or car mechanics here. We're talking about saving peoples lives. I would think the people in the EU woul

The Netguard app worked well for me for that on vanilla burners and such. No root, "VPN" that I had block pretty much everything but the browser and Signal.

I just installed Graphene on a new pixel. I've only used it for two days, but I got that same feeling of "finding buried treasure in your backyard" I got when I first installed Linux in 1999. I can't believe this amazing
