Știa multă lume, era destul de evidentă pentru specialiștii în domeniu. Cei de la The Guardian au aflat târziu. Uite, de exemplu, un post din aprilie 2016 care descrie aceeași chestie: https://tobi.rocks/2016/04/whats-app-re ... erability/

A fost o decizie de design, un sacrificiu adus securității pentru a face aplicația cât mai idiot-friendly (probabil a fost una din cerințe, având în vedere că e folosită de peste un miliard de oameni). Am dat mai sus niște link-uri cu justificarea lui Moxie, care e legitimă, cu toate că nu mă satisface. Deci continui să-l consider pe Moxie de bună credință. Cu toate astea, implementarea acelui protocol într-o aplicație neliberă n-ar trebui să inspire nimănui prea multă încredere. Păcat că o face.

Also, what vulp said. Pentru un telefon cu pretenții mari de securitate, e nevoie de Replicant sau CyanogenMod / LineageOS fără Google apps instalate.

sunt singurul care a observat ca vor iar sa schimbe interfata youtube? si e atat de utterly broken incat singura optiune de feedback pe care puteam s-o las cand am revenit la interfata veche era "eu sunt prostul" (sau, ma rog, p-acolo, ultima optiune, la care n-aveai de scris). la restul daca am completat si am dat next, dadea refresh si ma ducea inapoia la interfaca brokenata. wtf man wtf

Nu stiu daca e offtopic, e totusi hardware dar nu pentru PC :D

A inceput caldura rau si vreau sa-mi iau un aer conditionat doar ca nu stiu nimic despre ele si sunt destul de scumpe, nu vreau sa iau ceva gresit.

Aveti idee ce as putea alege de aici http://www.cel.ro/aparate-de-aer-conditionat/ ?

Nu este, ai ajuns unde trebuie: aici este o comunitate in care userii se ajuta intre ei. Daca iti vei lua aer conditionat, te va ajuta foarte mult la mentinerea unui ambient foarte benefic pentru hardware-ul PC-ului tau.

Are legatura cu ce s-a discutat apropo de net neutrality? Nu prea am vazut sa se faca mare valva prin presa desi am inteles ca s-au schimbat legile in US in ciuda opozitiei de pe net

Ad blocking is under attack
Yesterday a strange commit landed in the EasyList repo. The "functionalclam.com" domain was removed with a comment "Removed due to DMCA takedown request".

An ad server was unblocked by all ad blockers due to a DMCA request. Let that sink in for a moment...

[...]

This might set a very important precedent of an advertising company exploiting DMCA to force people to see their ads, and can lead to ridiculous consequences if left unnoticed.

EasyList is a community project and may not be able to protect themselves from such an attack. I am calling on other ad blockers developers, you people and everybody else concerned about people's rights (EFF, please) to stand up to this threat and protect ad blocking.

UPD (11 Aug, 8:09GMT): EFF representative offered their help to EasyList maintainers.
EFF s-au pus pe treabă, să sperăm că rezolvă repede mizeria asta.

Avast! There’s malware in that CCleaner software update

Welp am ccleaner dar nu l-am mai deschis/updatat de mult. Cred ca o sa-l sterg
A software package update for a Windows utility product distributed by antivirus vendor Avast has been spreading an unsavory surprise: a malware package that could allow affected computers to be remotely accessed or controlled with what appears to be a legitimate signing certificate. The malware, which was distributed through the update server for the Windows cleanup utility CCleaner, was apparently inserted by an attacker who compromised the software "supply chain" of Piriform, which was acquired by Avast in July. There have been more than 2 billion downloads of CCleaner worldwide, so the potential impact of the malware is huge.

In a blog post this morning, Cisco Talos Intelligence's Edmund Brumaghin, Ross Gibb, Warren Mercer, Matthew Molyett, and Craig Williams reported that Talos had detected the malware during beta testing of a new exploit-detection technology. The malware was part of the signed installer for CCleaner v5.3 and included code that called back to a command-and-control server as well as a domain-generation algorithm intended to find a new C&C server if the hard-coded IP address of the primary server was lost. Copies of the malicious software installer were distributed to CCleaner users between August 15 and September 12, 2017, using a valid certificate issued to Piriform Ltd by Symantec.
Well shit s-ar putea sa ma fi infectat dar am scanat cu comodo folder-ul de ccleaner si nimic

Blog post-ul mentionat in articol are mai multe detalii

HP stealthily installs new spyware called HP Touchpoint Analytics Client
HP is installing a telemetry client on its customers’ computers — and it isn’t offering any warning, or asking permission, before delivering the payload.

Dubbed “HP Touchpoint Analytics Service,” HP says it “harvests telemetry information that is used by HP Touchpoint’s analytical services.” Apparently, it’s HP Touchpoint Analytics Client version 4.0.2.1435.

I-a mai pasat cuiva de viteza browserului in ultimii 20 de ani? In Romania, ca-n alte locuri stiu ca e nasol.
