The suddenness w/ which Prigozhin is being vilified/erased by the same groups (botnets, news media, TV pundits) that once lauded or at least tolerated him shows you how easily the Kremlin could end the invasion & sell it to the public, if it wished.

Admittedly, Prigozhin was never a star of state television, but the capture of Bakhmut was a genuinely celebrated moment in state propaganda.

Call off the invasion, offering whatever excuse you like for why it was a massive victory for Russia, and the detractors would only be able to moan on their Telegram channels.

If you weren't swayed by "LastPass updated an existing post with a security breach disclosure (with a noindex meta tag so Google won't remember it, to boot) to mention that password vaults were compromised", maybe my experience with disclosing cryptographic issues will suffice to justify getting rid of LastPass.

Bitwarden, 1Password, KeePass, they're probably all good options. LastPass is shit.

as a data journalist, I do most of my reporting from my desk. I almost never get a dateline. So I was pleased to be helping Pranshu with a story on airplane tracking... while on an airplane.

Jeremy Merrill contributed to this report from aboard an aircraft located at 34.506°, -82.822°, according to ADSBExchange.com

In the lead up to, during, and following the 2022 U.S. midterm elections, Mandiant identified information operations activity from various foreign state-aligned campaigns, including those it assessed to be operating in the interests of #Russia, #China and #Iran

A few interesting examples in here

New, by me. Two weeks ago, LastPass said it was hacked for a second time this year. In a notice, LastPass said an intruder gained access to customers' information, but LastPass has said little else about the breach since

I parsed LastPass' data breach notice to explain what LastPass is and isn't saying, and how it impacts users.
