“Burnham must break with Starmer's dishonest politics, or fail just like him”

by Jonathan Cook on Substack

@uk_politics
@UKLabour

“Keir Starmer’s announcement on Monday that he was stepping down as Labour leader – and therefore as Britain’s prime minister – is a remarkable turnaround for the man whose election victory less than two years ago was uniformly heralded as a triumph.

In fact, Starmer rode into 10 Downing Street on a grand deception, propped up by the UK’s establishment media, that has proven the key to his undoing”

Burnham must break with Starmer's dishonest politics, or fail just like him

Even if likely successor Andy Burnham wants change, he'll face formidable external controls from the financial markets and internal constraints from the Labour machine

Plant a decoy persona, such as a fake LinkedIn profile or an unused directory account, to catch attackers reaching for what they think is real. The decoy has no production use, so any interaction is a high-confidence alert.

Plant Decoy Personas to Detect Impersonation Attacks

Decoy personas extend honeytoken thinking to user accounts and public profiles. The technique gives defenders a tripwire on the identity surface that other detection layers don't cover.

Honeypot update:

* 2,650+ attacks today from Taiwan, Belgium, France, Bulgaria and the eternal emartin.
* Someone tried to exploit a 6 year old F5 BIG-IP vulnerability against my WordPress HP today.
* Someone else used the same French XSS payload 474 times hoping for different results.
* A third someone fingerprinted themselves completely by using their Nuclei callback domain as a username.
* And emartin came back after 4 months like nothing happened.

I'm not saying running honeypots is entertaining.
I'm absolutely saying running honeypots is entertaining!!

WIST Quotations 5d ago

A quotation from Hannah Arendt

Mass propaganda discovered that its audience was ready at all times to believe the worst, no matter how absurd, and did not particularly object to being deceived because it held every statement to be a lie anyhow. The totalitarian mass leaders based their propaganda on the correct psychological assumption that, under such conditions, one could make people believe the most fantastic statements one day, and trust if the next day they were given irrefutable proof of their falsehood, they would take refuge in cynicism; instead of deserting the leaders who had lied to them, they would protest that they had known all along the statement was a lie and would admire the leaders for their superior tactical cleverness.

Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) German-American philosopher, political theorist
Origins of Totalitarianism, Part 3, ch. 11 “The Totalitarian Movement,” sec. 2 (1951)
