On/around 27th May 2024, the traffic from Azerbaijan to www.bbc.com & www.bbc.co.uk reduced by over 80%.
Looking at our data, I can see that the vast majority of traffic in Azerbaijan comes from AS29049 (Delta Telecom) which is their majority ISP according to Wikipedia.
OONI says tests were passing as recently as 28th May from AS29049 but there's definitely something going on...Unsure exactly what.
(the gap in AS29049 is a GeoIP data migration) #Azerbaijan#Censorship#InfoSec
Any recommendations for moving away from #gmail? Preferably somewhere that isn’t gonna implement #AI for #email? Can’t use my ISP’s email cos we want to change away as soon as OpenReach do their thing

There has been a lot of talk lately in tech circles and on YouTube about
how to get out of receiving AI-generated suggestions when you do a web
search -- which is now increasingly the default on Google.
While sometimes convenient, AI suggestions have 3 main problems:
a) They are often wrong,
b) They make you scroll way down the page to see the actual websites, &
c) They use all the earth's websites as their database, thereby stealing
everyone's content and rendering visiting the actual content creator
websites mute (unless AI answers wrong).
Here are some ways to turn off the AI in web search:

of privately hosted sites using the same open-source search software. I
notice that you can not do a site-specific search like in Google or
DuckDuckGo ("site:microsoft.com Outlook questions"). See also https://searx.space/ for a list of other search URLs in the network.

It's primitive... but it works... mostly...
I really want to make a career in the #InfoSec field. Security is my passion. I haven't yet decided which role I'd like to get involved in. All I know so far is that Malware Analysis isn't for me. I'm interested to hear from folks in the field who are #ActuallyAutistic, have #ADHD, or both. What roles have been a good fit for you? I'm guessing that Incident Response would be far too high stress, but I could be wrong about that. Boosts appreciated. #NeuroDiverseSquad#AuDhd#AskingAutistics
Un logiciel malveillant distribué via le PlayStore
Les auteurs distribuent le logiciel malveillant Anatsa via le PlayStore en le déguisant en applications telles que des lecteurs de PDF et des scanners de QRcode. Une fois installé, Anatsa télécharge sa charge utile et vole des infos bancaires sensibles à l'aide de superpositions. Anatsa a ciblé des applications bancaires en Europe et s'est étendu aux US, à la Corée et à Singapour.
Well it looks like the memory is in fact bad on my Windows box I use for OBS and streaming. I will run to mIcrocenter tomorrow and pick up new RAM which will also be an upgrade. They have a 64GB Crucial kit for like 50% off and only $20 more than the 32GB kit, not that I need 64GB but it will be more breathing room for multitasking when streaming.
So I will hopefully stream tomorrow afternoon reinstalling Qubes OS on the Purism Librem 14.
“Having All of Your Internal Resources Exhausted Beyond Measure and Being Left with No Clean-Up Crew”: Defining Autistic Burnout
First academic/clinical article I've ever seen specifically on autistic burnout, and it rings true. It's particularly validating to see initial confirmation that autistic burnout is its own distinct phenomena, which likely requires its own specific interventions.
I got a DM about how to host a Website as anonymous as possible, especially viewed from the outside with as little attack surface as possible. I already threw a bunch of my ideas in the room, but maybe you can think of something I haven't thought of...
Please just answer to this post if something crosses your mind from security over hoster to the website itself, I will link it to the person.
Just spent a week grinding through THM, got some certs out of it... are these any good? I don't know, but I have learned a bunch of interesting things.
Haven't had a job since December, and I'm nearing on 7 months here. I'll take anything that's remote.
I learn fast, I'm diligent, and I don't take shortcuts.
I grok computers good.

Hey #infosec and various old school #hacker types out there. Ages ago I read a tale about a print server that was the source of an intrusion into some system that the author of this tale was trying to secure. In other words, the print server (at some ISP in Australia) had been popped and from there the attacker was getting into other systems. If you were around in the last century and involved in tech and security you might have read this in some zine or blog. A pointer to a copy of this tale would be appreciated, and you will be rewarded in a large quantity of Zorkmids. And if you get the Zorkmids reference, surely you might recall this tale. Boosts appreciated.
