I'm a cypherpunk, interested also in solarpunk, and I love to bypass security measures  

People hire me to show how to break their systems. Then I help them implement and administer security systems (and policies) and teach how to respond properly to security incidents without creating pointless procedures and generating useless alerts.

In the past, I have worked in various areas of IT and cybersec, including critical infrastructure protection.

My interests are fluid and dynamic (and there are too many! 😅):
- cybersecurity / social engineering / OSINT / privacy
- hacking / hacktivism
- mini PCs / retro PCs
- homelab / self-hosting
- e2e encryption
- FOSS
- landscape photography
- neurodiversity
- psychology / mental health
- philosophy
- impact of climate change and technological development on health
- cycling / MTB / hiking
- renovation of cars older than 25 years
- human rights / equality

I would very much like it to be the case that "we" are not at war please.

This US administration has made it very clear it doesn't consider anyone else to be "we".

It's going to be disappointing if our administration thinks we are allied.

Funny how the US and Israel have the most advanced weapons in the world, but they always seem to kill kids in schools, not soldiers in military bases

We know that the Iranian regime murders innocent people, shoots at protesters, and imprisons its opponents. But the US administration does not want to help the protesters; the US administration is exploiting the situation to increase its influence in the region and justify the continued arming of Israel. Civilian casualties are becoming a standard side effect for which no one is taking responsibility. How many civilians will be killed by the military this time?

I think that these claims can be proven just as much as the claims that Saddam Hussein had nuclear weapons in 2003.

Bishop: Ah. You're the guys I hear breathing on the other end of my phone.
Gordon: No, that's the FBI. We're not chartered for domestic surveillance.
Bishop: Oh, I see. You just overthrow governments. Set up friendly dictators.
Gordon: No, that's the CIA. We protect our government's communications, we try to break the other fella's codes. We're the good guys, Marty.
Bishop: Gee, I can't tell you what a relief that is... Dick.

Client isolation has never been what the name suggests, and anyone who has tested these pseudo-isolation features knows this. However, I still highly recommend reading the paper.

TL;DR
Use OpenWRT instead of OEM firmware. Configure VLANs for network segmentation.
