However, Google creates cold backups of "hot data" that last for much longer than deleted data. Depending on the breadth of a warrant, data that was "hot deleted" and removed from servers could still be available on cold backups of the system made before the data was deleted. Unless we have evidence that deletion of hot data implies Google has a method to swiftly and reliably knock out that data in all its cold backups (including offsites).
This is, hypothetically, possible if they encrypt all data on-disk with a per-data-item key and the key itself is never backed up; if deletion deletes the hot key, the cold backups are now just noise and it doesn't matter if Google deletes them.
Before WPA3 a network with no password offers less security than a network for which everybody knows the password.
In WPA3 finally the no password ("guest") case has randomly chosen keys using RFC 8110 instead of being unencrypted, so it's equivalent security to everybody knowing the password.
I agree no password is the best outcome, and WPA3 makes that finally no more dangerous than it needs to be.
I mean turn if off once guests are gone, yes it's not safe as everything on the network can be sniffed by your nosy neighbors, you can quanrentine this guest network from your ethernet to make it less revealing. It's meant to be a one-off thing to avoid hassle. Good to know they have that in WPA3.
In WPA3 the nosy neighbours can't sniff anything. If there is no password or they know it they can do an active MITM to get between users and your Access Point because it now uses a PAKE, but active attacks can be detected and would be a bit more than "nosy neighbours". If you use anything fancier than a password (including technologies like EduRoam or GovRoam, Active Directory login, whatever) any adversary has to attack that instead.
The timeline confuses quite a lot people (the show has a 7.6 rating in China and a lot of people say it's intelligible, either due to bad translation or bad viewing habits like playback speeds IDK), but it's what made this show extra unique and intriging at least for me, I knew absolute nothing about The Witcher, but the way this show proceeds and the slight confusion came with it just made the whole experience another level, I felt I'm doing an adventure with the story trying to figure it out.
Some people aren't comfortable to be challenged, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The timeline was easy to follow, that wasn’t my issue.
The issue was just bad writing. So much bad writing. Cliche moments everywhere, terrible dialogue, completely and utterly predictable plot, bad screen time allocations.
I think the screenwriters should first figure out how to write one engaging plot before trying to figure out how to interweave three.
I had the same feeling, thoroughly enjoyed it. They dared to venture beyond the typical and find there own footing. One of the better series on a Netflix. It reminds me a bit of Black Sails which is my personal favorite series in recent memory.
Not only that，you don't have to be in close range when attacking, weak signal that won't get you connected or even shown up in the list is enough to make it work, you can stay even farther if you have high gain antennas, as this attack doesn't require your response packets to work, you just have to send the target AP one-way fake frames.
The story has some problem, Doubi is not an SSR developer, SSR was a high school girl's popular personal fork who mysteriously stopped.
Doubi is a blogger sharing GFW circumvention tips, like easy-to-use installing scripts for VPS, tutorials, reviews and a list of donated free acounts. Before his arrest, his blog had been under attack, domain names blocked.
The phone number thing is very dangerous, twitter bascially won't allow you to use it after a while if you don't provide a valid phone number.
Windows 10 too, it tries too hard to look chic. I've tried many it many times but I always return to 7. And the font is just always blurry, I guess you either use 4K display or don't use 10.
Most Chinese don't hate the party, this is hard to believe for many people. As interest-vested, the most common way is buying over-priced condos, you don't want to lose money, and you want to double what you invested like so many others did.
The trick is to make just enough people of a society interest-vested and happy, gradually you can basically ignore the rest as they are poor and underpriviledged, especially since technology is more omnipresent and powerful than ever.
And interestly, WeChat claims they don't store user messages, but Chinese police apparently has it. Any app, website or forum on which users can post comments must verify ID-linked phone numbers first.
Unfortunately, this is quickly coming to the West as well. I believe twitter, facebook, imgur, and gmail (and I'm sure I missed many others) all require phone number verification, and most countries require some sort of ID to get a phone number.
And I say this with the direct opposite intent of whataboutism - it's horrifying in China, and if we let it, it'll be just as horrifying here.
Encryption is either broken or its not. No one has broken modern strong encryption yet. Quantum computing as a threat to strong encryption is still purely theoretical. Also, you don’t need to use a quantum computer to break encryption when you hold the private keys, you just decode to plain text the normal way. This is exactly what they did
Just to add a bit to this thought: Recent news about RSA keys and prime factoring seems to all be written as if there is pretty much no reason left to use encryption. But as jtms alludes, these important discoveries do have an immediate impact on weak encryption, which should be understood to mean decades-old outdated technologies. As far as strong encryption goes, quantum computing is still seriously far off unless a new discovery comes around to improve the results considerably.
Compared to the human life cycle, quantum cryptography is at the "on the verge of speaking in coherent sentences, but still prone to smearing feces on the wall" age and stage. You can sense that they'll grow up to be quite smart, but there's a lot of learning to go before you can hope for a Junior Einstein.
