Read the article yourself, that is quite possibly disinformation. The situation over there is very complex, and nothing is pure truth. Unless she practiced OPSEC above and beyond what most untrained people are capable of, it was always a high risk that it'd end this way.
I've got nothing but respect for her. Her execution and the violence and organised crime is abhorrent. I wish there was something I could do.
- vacri 12y agoUnless she practiced OPSEC above and beyond what most untrained people are capable of Even security researchers don't practice it to that level. I went to a security conference last year, and one of the speakers was talking about his wifi sniffing box. Time came to demo how it worked... and it turns out that the wifi for the venue had crashed, and the security delegates in the main conference room behind him all attached to his box for net access - he was able to demo skimming hundreds of accounts, apparently. There was another speaker who mentioned that the security industry throws up so many 'best practice' recommendations that even security specialists can't cover them all.
