Like he says on Twitter - was this deliberate? Doesn't seem like it yet, and there's no proof of it, but it's pretty scary. There's excellent plausible deniability, and the law enforcement benefits could be substantial.
- Syonyk 4y agoI was just about to ask, "Is this still coincidence, or have we jumped straight to enemy action?" That two different tools fail in the same, "surface level invisible" but mighty convenient, and "Whoopsie, file operations are hard!" way... raises some interesting questions. Mostly, "What else of this nature is present in all our modern operating systems?" Because this sort of failure sure looks an awful lot like the "Underhanded C" contest from 2008: http://www.underhanded-c.org/_page_id_17.html http://www.underhanded-c.org/_page_id_17.html Redact an image, while leaking a lot of information in the process to someone who "knows the trick." > This is an excellent example of the contest’s philosophy: make the code extremely simple, innocent, obvious, and wrong.
