Ce qu’Arnaud Montebourg nous dit de la gauche - Gavroche Média

Libération et Le Monde ont attaqué Arnaud Montebourg, ancien ministre socialiste, pour ses liens avec Stérin. La gauche perpétue ses erreurs.

I've had several people ask me why we use C instead of Rust or other languages at wolfSSL. One of my colleagues wrote an explanation:

Why C Remains the Gold Standard for Cryptographic Software - wolfSSL

For production cryptographic software, memory safety alone does not define security. Real-world crypto must run on every platform, maintain stable assumptions

FBI Extracts Deleted Signal Messages from iPhone Notification Database - Schneier on Security

404 Media reports (alternate site): The FBI was able to forensically extract copies of incoming Signal messages from a defendant’s iPhone, even after the app was deleted, because copies of the content were saved in the device’s push notification database…. The news shows how forensic extraction—­when someone has physical access to a device and is able to run specialized software on it—­can yield sensitive data derived from secure messaging apps in unexpected places. Signal already has a setting that blocks message content from displaying in push notifications; the case highlights why such a feature might be important for some users to turn on...

Side note, if you want to see how common of a pattern this is, and I can't believe I didn't think of this earlier, go search Github.com for 'deleteduser.com', lots of examples of delete functions from apps there that do this type of thing.

Every bank is like “we’re more than just a bank” and all anyone wants is for them to shut the fuck up and be a bank

Google has news on what you will need to do for still being able to sideload apps:

* enable developer options
* confirm that you are not tricked
* restart phone and re-authenticate
* wait one day
* confirm with biometrics that you know what you are doing
* decide if you only want unrestricted installs for 1 week or forever
* confirm that you accept the risks
* enjoy the few apps that still have developers motivated to develop for a user-base willing to put up with this

Before becoming a politician, one should complete a mandatory 1.5 years of social service, divided into three-month periods:

— in nursing care
— in a daycare center
— in a school
— in a medium-sized company
— in retail
— on a farm

All unpaid and voluntary, of course.
