Jealousy, greed, fear. We're all full of these things. But also love and compassion. If you saw a drowning baby, it wouldn't matter if you were wearing a tuxedo on the way to your own wedding. You'd jump in to save him.
I have dual citizenship; I would be happy to go to England. I would be very happy to go to America.
The most promising privacy thing is stupid phones. I'm dumping all my smart phones.
It's very hard to keep an uncrackable encryption if you share it with the government.
I trust and use RakEM for my private messages and calls. Other messengers collected metadata about who I messaged, when and where - RakEM does not collect metadata, encrypts local files, and uses the strongest end-to-end encryption around.
One who understands the relationships between the human heart and the human mind will always out-hack those who chase after an ever-changing technology.
I think that it's when we step out of the road, step outside the box, become our own person, and we walk fearlessly down paths other people wouldn't look at, that true progress comes. And sometimes true beauty as well.
There are always losers when society evolves. In the free market, these losers are expected and encouraged to retrain and find new ways to survive and thrive.
We are at war - undeclared and of such a subtle nature that few have noticed - but war nevertheless. It is a cyberwar on many fronts, in which it is difficult to identify who is friend and who is foe. I will predict now, as unintelligible as it may seem, that Anonymous will turn out to be more friend than foe.
A simple social engineering hack might involve leaving a thumb drive on the pavement close to the driver's door of a car.
Do you think the Chinese think twice about hiring a hacker with a mohawk or a tattooed face? No.
A hacker is someone who uses a combination of high-tech cybertools and social engineering to gain illicit access to someone else's data.
When a hacker gains access to any corporate data, the value of that data depends on which server, or sometimes a single person's computer, that the hacker gains access to.
Social engineering has become about 75% of an average hacker's toolkit, and for the most successful hackers, it reaches 90% or more.
I think the thing that our government lacks - just about more than anything else - is technological competence. We have some of the greatest white-hat hackers in the world here in the U.S., but the government seems to be technologically illiterate.
Hackers rarely have full knowledge of the technology stack of a target.
Belize is still a pirate haven and is run more or less along the lines established centuries ago by the likes of Captain Morgan, Blackbeard, and Captain Barrow.
I, perhaps wrongly, assume that people actually read articles that interest them rather than just headlines.
My most heartfelt thank you goes to Impact Future Media and Cartoon Monkey Studio. Their dedication to the truth is very uncommon in the world we live in today. I am now, and will always be, grateful to their organizations.
These 'free' applications ask for permission to read your emails, your text messages, listen to your phone calls, record video from your phone. Why else would someone spend millions developing an application which they then give away? Kind-hearted, maybe? Get real.
