Been reading about the case of Edward Austin Singh in the UK, a #hacker who was caught physically trespassing in a Teesside Polytechnic college computer lab, while connected to various #hacked computers, by UK police in 1988. #hacking#history
Still combing through #hacker stories in news archives from 1987 & what the hell is this.
As reported in The Albany Herald in April of 1987, this cop had his #hacking conviction reversed, he'd managed to cyberstalk women in 1984! Unbelievable this was already a thing back then.
Hacker nahmen VW jahrelang ins Visier und stahlen Tausende Dateien
Die Vorfälle liegen schon einige Jahre zurück: Von 2010 an haben Hacker Tausende Dateien der Volkswagen-Gruppe erbeutet. Medienberichten zufolge soll die Spur Richtung China führen.

Adobe Magneto: una pericolosa minaccia RCE per i siti di e-commerce
Gli specialisti di Sicurezza Informatica hanno avvertito che gli #hacker stanno già sfruttando una nuova #vulnerabilità in #Magento (CVE-2024-20720) e l'utilizzatore per implementare una #backdoor persistente sui siti di e-commerce.
A little over a year ago, originally due to an interest in the deeper history of #compilers, I started diving deep into the #Talmud, studying #Aramaic, #gematria, and doing #DafYomi etc in what has become my deepest engagement with the rabbinic corpus yet -- the Talmud isn't a compiler but rather an extensible interpreter, compiled by compilers over the course of many centuries (build times have gotten significantly faster, my G-d), with novel extensions in the form of rabbinic commentary, glossia and the like being added nearly every century by publishers competing to compile the most elegant editions (Vilna Shaws being paradigmatic). And through studying Talmud and the greater body of rabbinic literature I've found myself encountering #magic/sorcery occasionally, and I just gotta say -- the #SICP metaphor of programming as pure magic, with the #hacker as a sorcerer, goes insanely deep when you start to dig into it.

I remember when buffer overflows became a thing, and how since it was being discussed on the open Internet in #security circles that it got a lot of attention. Seemed so bleeding edge and exciting back then, now it's just a thing we deal with.
I wonder if this whole #xz thing is similar - in that an attacker has embedded a payload that triggers via a specific key pair. It's so clever and exciting, I mean all the calls are already inside of ssh for the key pair processing, I mean what a perfect way to implement it. Yes it is scary, but from an attacker perspective I think every #hacker on the planet is slightly envious and wishes they had thought of it first.
Now imagine a day when this is the new normal. What a time to be alive.
Wie lange dürfen eure Kinder Zocken?
Macht es dabei für euch einen Unterschied, was sie Zocken?
(Hilfreich wäre natürlich wie alt die entsprechenden Kinder ca sind. Also z.B. Kindergarten, Grundschule, Teenager…)
Habt ihr unterschiedliche Regeln für Wochentags und Wochenende bzw. Ferien?
Hintergrund: Es ist hier immer wieder Thema und ich hab keine 100% klare Haltung bin aber lockerer als andere Eltern im Umfeld.
My son, 11 years old, has stated an interest in #hacking, wants things like the Flipper Zero or Pwnagotchi for his birthday. The kid loves picking up old tech and messing with it.
Not a #hacker myself, but I see enough of y'all on here that I wish I were! I can't help beyond getting him comfortable using the terminal.
I've seen some "getting started with (ethical) hacking" articles out there, but thought I'd ask some humans, too. Any suggestions on where to start?
As I stray closer to the present day in my #FOIA requests this is the first one of these I’ve gotten, from the #FBI. Request was for records on poodlecorp. #hacking#hacker#history
