There are ways to create secure communications if need be. I have thought of ways that would work to accomplish doing it.
I won't detail the designs here, but we are talking very cheap to build and design.
I am sure such devices exist and are in the wild, being used by spies.
That said -- I am mostly disappointed with the degree to which our intelligence agencies are inwardly focused rather than breaking up foreign spy rings and operations.
There are some scarey, harmful, and extremely complicated foreign spy rings on US soil. They have people working for all major tech companies and they are embedded in key positions.
The FBI should be making "see something? say something" pushes in tech companies. They should have better followup and reward systems.
- maqp 5y agoThere are indeed. It's not just spies. My work wrt endpoint secure comms is FOSS and free for anyone to use https://github.com/maqp/tfc https://github.com/maqp/tfc (the HW costs a bit naturally but in other respects).
- ycuser2 5y agoThis is the coolest thing I have read in about a month. Never heard of data diode before. The hardware setup gives such a peace for the paranoic mind. Love it!
