One might wish to laugh at the fuckupedness of these pricks - if only they were just tending a small local circus.

That email reached campaign staffer Brian Hughes, who apparently wanted Waltz – then a spokesperson for the Trump – to be aware of Goldberg’s inquiries so he could offer informed comment if a story appeared.

Hughes therefore sent Goldberg’s inquiry, which included the journalist’s phone number,to Waltz. Image c/o DailyKos

My main motivations where to use Signal on multiple devices and to have OpenStreetMaps instead of Google Maps when sharing location.

It is basically what Signal should be if they trully embrassed free software.

[05:45] Loskomen van Amerikaanse tech gaat ook over internetbankieren

Van WhatsApp naar Signal overstappen is zo gedaan, maar wat als big tech vermijden betekent dat je niet meer kunt internetbankieren? Martijn Verhagen strijdt al jaren tegen de technologische afhankelijkheid van bedrijven als Apple en Google, maar dreigt daardoor nu de toegang tot zijn bankrekening en het spaargeld van zijn kinderen te verliezen.

Ugh. Stop whinging in the name of #weaksuace humour and take an actual “stand” by getting off #WhatsApp and getting on #Signal. Fuck the #olgarchy. And if your friends insist you keep using WhatsApp, they aren’t actually your friends at all. Stop being part of the problem. #TheGairdian #AusPol

Hi guys, I have tried the #CC1101 from #Lilygo. It is important that you pay attention to the identification CC1101 if you want to reproduce this yourself, because the device is also sold under other identifiers with a different range of functions and looks exactly the same.

It is a #hacker #tool with which you can record and analyze #Wifi, #Bluetooth, #NFC and #Lora signals. You can also use it as a #BadUSB #development tool. It is much cheaper than a #FlipperZero, but also has a smaller range of functions.

It is somewhat disappointing that the default firmware supplied is only suitable for testing the screen, LEDs and controls. It is otherwise useless and should therefore be replaced immediately.

For my first test I choose the #firmware from #CapibaraZero: https://capibarazero.com

It is very easy to #install via the #browser. However, my Firefox refused to do this, which is why I used Thorium (a free Chrome variant): https://flash.capibarazero.com

Stay tuned and follow me if you don't want to miss it and I'll tell you what you can do with the device.

Die Künstliche Intelligenz des iPhones ist schuld, dass Mike #Waltz den #Atlantic-Journalisten in die #Houthi-Angriffsgruppe auf #Signal eingeladen hat.

In Zukunft wird wohl immer die #KI an allem schuld sein.

Signal vs. Session: Which messenger actually protects your privacy in a world that’s always watching?

I broke down what really matters—metadata, anonymity, and whether your phone number is giving you away.

If you’re serious about privacy, you’ll want to read this:

Don't let the mainstream news media convince you that #signal is a bad choice for end-to-end encryption. What the media fails to do is convince you that the state of security on end user devices ends up bad because people are prone to making bad decisions.

IT #security often fails due to the #carelessness and #incompetence of #users.

Probably this time too:
https://www.n-tv.de/politik/So-kam-der-Journalist-in-die-geheime-Signal-Gruppe-article25684560.html

Unfortunately, prematurely unsettling #headlines appeared on #ntv, among others: @ntv ‘How secure is the messenger service Signal?’ (https://www.n-tv.de/technik/Wie-sicher-ist-der-Messengerdienst-Signal-article25659217.html).

Dear stubborn #BigTech users: ‘This incident would also have happened if you had communicated via Pony Express or fax.’

Too bad the #press isn't communicating this clearly!

#Signal @signalapp

IT-#Sicherheit scheitert häufig an der #Sorglosigkeit und #Inkompetenz der #Benutzer.

Vermeimtlich auch dieses Mal:
https://www.n-tv.de/politik/So-kam-der-Journalist-in-die-geheime-Signal-Gruppe-article25684560.html

Leider entstanden vorschnell verunsichernde #Schlagzeilen u.a. bei #ntv: @ntv "Wie sicher ist der Messengerdienst Signal?" (https://www.n-tv.de/technik/Wie-sicher-ist-der-Messengerdienst-Signal-article25659217.html).

Liebe sture Nutzer von #BigTech: "Dieser Vorfall wäre auch passiert, wenn man per Pony-Express oder Fax kommuniziert hätte."

Schade, dass die #Presse das nicht klar kommuniziert!

#Signal @signalapp

According to the White House, the number was erroneously saved during a “contact suggestion update” by Waltz’s iPhone, which one person described as the function where an iPhone algorithm adds a previously unknown number to an existing contact that it detects may be related.
