- A Rubicon
- Dan Geer essay on software and AI risk.
- Richard Stallman on Privacy, Data, and Free Software
- Classic Stallman. The problem with today’s plutocratic, neoliberal
ideology goes way beyond software, however.
- Supply-Chain Security
- Very scary. Traditional supply chain infrastructure doesn’t manage
software change well at all, despite the technology being available
to do it. It doesn’t adequately address malware injection at
inception, either.
- Details on a New PGP Vulnerability
- Initial report from Bruce Schneier. Some followup in the comments.
This isn’t a vulnerability in PGP. It’s the way it interacts with
modern email programs. It’s a good example of unintended
consequences in system integration.
- EFF’s New Wordlists for Random Passphrases
- From 2016, but this is a good reference. You are using passphrases
for your important passwords, right?
