Some of the citations are factually incorrect, do people actually check this papers out before they get published? Dodgy Science & whitepapers!

Author of the paper here - can you be more specific about which citations are factually incorrect?

  Here's one! [126] Amar Toor. UK to block all online porn by default later this year. The Verge, 2013.

    From the Paper: > For example, adult content blocking is legally mandated for U.S. K–12 school networks [27, 63] and commercial U.K. ISPs [126] From Wikipedia: > Pornography is one of the types of content blocked by the Internet filtering systems used by UK Internet Service Providers (ISPs). Since the end of 2013 a program of applying filtering to new ISP customers has been in place, and this has been extended to existing users on a rolling basis. A voluntary code of practice agreed by all four major ISPs[75] means that customers have to 'opt out' of the ISP filtering to gain access to the blocked content. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pornography_in_the_United_Kingdom#Internet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pornography_in_the_United_King... You consider that factually incorrect?

  Interesting profile https://cs.nyu.edu/dynamic/news/colloquium/1170/ https://cs.nyu.edu/dynamic/news/colloquium/1170/ BREAKING AND BUILDING END-TO-END ENCRYPTED SYSTEMS Speaker: Paul Allen Grubbs, Cornell University Today’s computer systems and their owners fail to protect data. Exacerbating this are new threats stemming from the rise of cloud computing. The consequences are dire: sensitive information like financial statements, medical records, and private messages are disclosed to malicious parties. In my research at the intersection of security, cryptography, and systems, I work to change this by breaking and building efficient end-to-end (E2E) encrypted systems, which protect data by keeping it encrypted throughout processing and storage. In this talk, I’ll explain some of the flaws I’ve found in existing E2E-encrypted systems deployed to billions of users, how the flaws have led me to a new methodology for building these systems that’s rooted in co-design of cryptography and systems, and some of the new E2E-encrypted systems I’m building.
