Yeah I don't think I'll ever post anything here I wouldn't want #searchable. Use your own discretion, but I assume I'm public anyway.

China targeted and might have held for months access to the infrastructure used to do wiretaps on the AT&T and Verizon networks.

This is a huge "told you so" moment for the cryptographic community that has been saying that such infrastructure does present a huge risk to national security. China reportedly used this capability for intelligence collection, obviously without a warrant ...

"Persuasion was always the corporations most dangerous art."

Casually getting a solid evocative definition from a local-first language models running on my phone:

"Petricor" refers to the pleasant, earthy scent produced when rain falls on dry soil. The word comes from the Greek words "petra," meaning stone, and "ichor," the fluid that flows in the veins of the gods in Greek mythology. This distinctive smell is caused by the release of certain chemicals, primarily a compound called geosmin, which is produced by bacteria in the soil. The smell of petricor often evokes strong associations with nature and the freshness following a rain shower.

I'm seeing a lot of people finding low quality ChatGPT integrations that are just proxied to the OpenAI API with a system prompt... It reminds me A LOT of malware in the 90s. Things are pretty harmless but are low key costing people money to deal with...

I think there is a lot about 90s cyber security that will need to be relearned all over again around these integrations and I'm just waiting for people to figure out these embedded chats could probably have their system prompt broken and used raw instead of paying for their own OpenAI API access...

I urge Congress to address our national security and domestic needs — and House Republicans to stop wasting time on extreme bills and honor our bipartisan budget agreement.” - President Biden in a statement
