“The Real Terrorist Was Me And The Real Terrorism Is This Occupation” | Ex U.S. Soldier July 27, 2016 by Dane Arr http://prepareforchange.net/2016/07/27/the-real-terrorist-was-me-and-the-re… Many of us have been awake to the reality of the world being dominated by a Cabal, using control of the media , banking and governments to wage war on innocent people, all of it facilitated by a high level agreement on “population control”, which has become an agreement to decimate populations whenever possible using every policy that they (the Cabal) can implement. At this point, in Cabal controlled countries, almost every function of government, originally created to serve the public, now serves the depopulation agenda. Healthcare, food production, law enforcement, the judiciary, media and in the case of this Youtube video the act of patriotism and defending one’s country has been subverted to become a part of the doctrine of “continuous war” wherein troops are deployed to defend their country under false pretenses and then encouraged to believe everyone there is a “terrorist” or “insurgent”, and that they should be killed under the flimsiest of pretexts. When they do, there is no accountability, other than being rewarded for doing so. This has been the case since the Vietnam War and 911 triggered invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq set off the most egregious case of this mindless slaughter of innocents. The soldiers involved enlist under false impressions about what they will be doing, and then are lured into what can only be called mass murder by the situations they are thrust into and the mind control they are subjected to. This young man has come forward, just as so many have in the past, filled with sorrow and remorse over what has happened in his life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__lHWifCtWM ----- Forwarded message from Jim ----- Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2016 13:05:25 +1000 From: Jim <jim.sovereign(a)optusnet.com.au> Subject: “The Real Terrorist Was Me And The Real Terrorism Is This Occupation” | Ex U.S. Soldier.

US NY DA Wants Crypto Rolled Back
by grarpamp 28 Jul '16

28 Jul '16

http://www.tomsguide.com/us/vance-phone-decrypt-iccs,news-23050.html Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. called on Apple and Google to weaken their device encryption, arguing that thousands of crimes remained unsolved because no one can crack into the perpetrators' phones. Vance, speaking at the International Conference on Cyber Security here, said that law enforcement officials did not need an encryption "backdoor," sidestepping a concern of computer-security experts and device makers alike. Instead, Vance said, he only wanted the encryption standards rolled back to the point where the companies themselves can decrypt devices, but police cannot. This situation existed until September 2014, when Apple pushed out iOS 8, which Apple itself cannot decrypt. "Tim Cook was absolutely right when he told his shareholders that the iPhone changed the world," Of course without actually seeing what's on the phones such claims "unsolved" cannot be made. Even more stupid since telcos, providers and NSA have backups of same data.

Civil Disobedience prize/ monetary award

July 27th, 2016 Disobedience Has Its Award http://fossforce.com/2016/07/disobedience-award/#more-1594540 Christine Hall Civil disobedience gets its due with the creation of a special award that was announced at last week’s Forbidden Research symposium at MIT. News & Analysis As one whose early early political education, after I was old enough to quit listening to my father and think for myself, came largely from the various civil disobedience factions in the 1960s, it’s heartening to see that disobedience now has an award. So far it’s one off, but if successful might be repeated and perhaps be awarded annually. The award will also offer the recipient more than mere accolades, as it’s attached to a $250,000 prize. The MIT Media Lab Disobediance award was announced at Thursday’s Forbidden Research symposium ( http://www.media.mit.edu/events/forbidden/overview ) at MIT and was later the subject of a blog post by Joi Ito ( https://medium.com/mit-media-lab/rewarding-disobedience-ae194d9f0785#.i6se1… ), the director of MIT Media Lab. The cash comes by way of a donation from Reid Hoffman, the executive chairman of LinkedIn, who evidently has some disposable cash after last month’s announced deal that will see Microsoft taking control of the social site he co-founded for $26.2 billion. According to Ito, the award “will go to a person or group engaged in what we believe is excellent disobedience for the benefit of society. The disobedience that we would like to call out is the kind that seeks to change society in a positive way, and is consistent with a set of key principles. The principles include non-violence, creativity, courage, and taking responsibility for one’s actions. The disobedience can be in – but is not limited to – the fields of scientific research, civil rights, freedom of speech, human rights, and the freedom to innovate.” Michael Petricone with the Consumer Electronics Association, has tweeted a suggestion ( https://twitter.com/mpetricone/status/757524702206259200 ) that the award be named in honor of hactivist Aaron Swartz. On Tuesday, Mike Masnick seconded that notion ( https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20160725/23412635066/mit-media-lab-launch… ) on Techdirt. I’ll gladly throw my hat into that ring. MIT owes him at least that much.

The Power Of Irradiating Ourselves
by grarpamp 27 Jul '16

27 Jul '16

Free power of course... https://science.slashdot.org/story/16/07/14/2049246/cleanspace-co-sensor-ru… A few years ago, a Kickstarter was set up to develop a locator tag powered by free radio frequency (RF) energy harvested from the environment. This was called a scam here on Slashdot and was shut down before it was funded on Kickstarter. However, it now appears that the concept is not as far-fetched as some predicted. A UK company CleanSpace has developed a carbon monoxide (CO) sensor which is powered by free RF. A review of the product has been posted on YouTube. It uses Freevolt technology to keep a battery charged and the CO sensor running. Since they have several thousand of these devices collecting data, they do appear to work and it seems to be in the 'not a scam' department.

System time as cookie/deanonymization?
by Georgi Guninski 27 Jul '16

27 Jul '16

One of these days, I saw a box whose system time was off by about a minute. No big deal in this case, but significantly smaller difference is a fingerprint of the machine: Alice is off by -0.58390128310s, etc. Getting very good approximation of system time from a browser is not very trivial, but likely writing something like NTP in javascript is doable. Read that tor browser bundle downgrades the clock resolution possibly for other reasons, but IIRC the resolution was enough for this purpose. Can this be used for cookie/deanonymization? Anyone already implemented it/wrote a paper? Quick web search didn't answer exactly this.

My posts are HTML compatible. NOT HTML only. Any modern mail reader set to view in plain text should have no problem whatsoever nor would it be rejected by a list that only accepts plain text. I do not attached images, web beacons or any other crap. All my missives are typed by hand and represent ME, on a list THAT IS NOT a 'coders' list, but a general interest list for people interested in cybersec, with coders subscribed. That is what this list has been afaict since it's inception, and that's the reason I'm here. As far as 'conflict' goes. I respond to trolls in kind, once or twice, and then ignore them. You might send your complaint to: Juan Cari Machete 'Stef' who thinks like you that this is a 'coder list' and referred to my posts as 'pollution'. That last one is Kill-listed for eternity... Because a list Fascist is just like any other fascist. You KILL THEM by any means necessary with any weapon at hand. And if YOU send me another email offlist with your whines, I'll add you to the list of known trolls. Kapiche?

on building a political platform matrix
by Zenaan Harkness 27 Jul '16

27 Jul '16

A human wants to know what to believe in, what to barrack for. It is suggested that they find answers from within their fabulous selves. How might we best facilitate the individual's quiotic political discovery journey in some easy to access way? Pointing at books is simply too much for the average modern Western human, schooled as s/he is. Perhaps a 'decision' tree? A list or flow chart or the like for the possible planks of any political platform? Should it be anything other than a wiki? Probably should be git backed and text based in the back end, markdown or etc.

Court Forces Fingerprint Phone Unlock
by grarpamp 27 Jul '16

http://9to5mac.com/2016/07/25/touch-id-fingerprint-fbi-law/ http://9to5mac.com/2016/05/02/federal-court-touch-id-fingerprint/ http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2016/05/feds-say-suspect-should-rot-in-p… https://apple.slashdot.org/story/16/07/25/1559208/suspect-required-to-unloc… A second federal judge has ruled that a suspect can be compelled to unlock their iPhone using their fingerprint in order to give investigators access to data which can be used as evidence against them. The first time this ever happened in a federal case was back in May, following a District Court ruling in 2014. The legal position of forcing suspects to use their fingerprints to unlock devices won't be known with certainty until a case reaches the U.S. Supreme Court, but lower court rulings so far appear to establish a precedent which is at odds with that concerning passcodes. Most constitutional experts appear to believe that the Fifth Amendment prevents a suspect from being compelled to reveal a password or passcode, as this would amount to forced self-incrimination -- though even this isn't certain. Fingerprints, in contrast, have traditionally been viewed as 'real or physical evidence,' meaning that police are entitled to take them without permission.
