@briankrebs Did you go to the website and look at the page? Because it has GPG signatures there

@briankrebs open source projects typically do this for their downloads. Makes one wonder why everyone doesn't.

@briankrebs

I recall webpages with more than one hash tied to the download file. Even PGP Signatures.

Apparently, web site maintenance is too expensive.

This is fitting. The top topic on Xitter right now is of course the global Crowdstrike/Windows clusterfuck. But the AI summary of the discussion is hilarious, b/c it summarizes a bunch of sarcastic posts and makes it sound like a positive (or at least can-do) story.

@briankrebs good to know! Thanks!

@briankrebs Seems you can also negate that field.

@briankrebs In the default Masto web app (which I don't normally use) if you start typing in the search box, it pops up lots of helpful hints about useful things search can do.

@briankrebs Do the cookies from Columbia come with coffee?

@briankrebs I propose a law that bars third party data brokers from any site or interaction which directly or indirectly requires government ID per law. KYC and tax are two examples. Any related data should be tainted as "fruit of the ID Tree" and restricted from outside the authority collecting it.

@briankrebs What's worse is that this is for a US government website. You would think they would have access to their own domain names or something.

What they say: too big to fail

Not only google search
The same thing applied to YouTube

@briankrebs Cory Doctorow has a word fot that for that :-)

@briankrebs Hak5 did a whole segment on this back in the day. I want to say they showed up to configure the phone to change the ttl to 64 but it's been ages since I watched the episode.

@briankrebs I have 350 Mbit/s but as a hotspot I only get 20-40 Mbit/s out of it. Also there is no option at all to get a wired wifi here. So it is sadly the only option.

@briankrebs do you know where such things are done by providers? I've never heard of such here in germany and never had bandwidth issues on tethered devices.

@briankrebs it's a wonderful news!

@briankrebs Here are some screenshots of how usernames work in #Signal if anyone is interested:

#Threema and #SimpleX do offer messaging without phone number authentication.

@briankrebs @jerry just downloaded this app and like 20% of the posts i see are about X lmao

@briankrebs I’m glad you’re here, and I know many others are too.

@briankrebs I used to teach in my penetration testing course that all you need to do to find your own 0-days is ... rtfm!

@briankrebs Sick people!

I'm confused by the HTTP 1.1 diagram. What about request pipelining? Or do common web servers work such that the client is required to receive the response to their first request before the second one will be processed?

@briankrebs They are concerned about their profits. The most efficient solution to prevent damage to their profits is to stop people from noticing there’s a problem, rather than attempting to fix the problem.

@briankrebs @lisamelton oof. It’s like it’s easier to shoot the messenger than to correct the problem.

@briankrebs Meta's breeds are online malware.

Haven't they caused enough harm for bucks already?

@briankrebs

I was on some social network before 2005 and they didn't ask that.

But they also was on invite only, not searching for business money

@briankrebs I don't recall #Bluesky asking me for any of that contact info.

@briankrebs Open source innit. If you feel that feature is missing I'm sure you're welcome to code it.
