MartinReading through this report from Access Now and Citizen Lab concerning the use of mercenary spyware on Jordanian civil society and journalists. Interestingly, they also mention the use of Apple's "lockdown mode" for iPhones, "appears to have blocked some attempts to compromise Apple devices with Pegasus." https://www.accessnow.org/publication/between-a-hack-and-a-hard-place-how-pegasus-spyware-crushes-civic-space-in-jordan/

I wrote an uncomfortable for some blog about how too much security education is capitalist harm
Working in security education is just saying pls listen and collaborate more and having people who think vanity dashboards and saying phish smish vish works tell you “no one will listen “
You don’t have anything to fear from the SEC solarwinds case, if you are transparent, accountable and communicate with the business

The online harms bill won’t keep children safe but it will give more power to the police and their partners, none of whom have ever hurt people … oh wait
What infosec needs is to listen more, and to establish strategies for collaboration and communication.
That’s it
@juliewebgirl @onepict it was when I met someone with friends at a security meetup and left the table to grab a drink. They all decided it would be hilarious to look through my phone and got into it, maybe I didn’t lock it or maybe they used a method they knew. Idk. It was awful and left me feeling confused later.
@http_error_418 @neil it was so normalised I accepted it at the time. But seeing the dude lauded this week as an empathy champion, when he helped other men go through my phone… it is why I keep my circle small
I don’t think we have many people who are true empaths. And they are certainly not men in tech who took my phone and went through it, with other men, the first time I met them
The ally shield is strong, you can use it to hide all sorts of really terrible behavior
