From my experience, there are conferences where sponsors have a lot of influence on the content. But these conferences are mostly commercial-oriented: talks presenting products rather than talks about the state of the art in the domain. For

I don't think it would actually be the case: Banning hunting as a hobby would be a massive win. There is an artificial imbalance in the ecosystems introduced by hunters who feed specific animals at certain times in order to have more,

The actual claim is that NSA may have already spent a lot of time and effort to analyse PQC algorithm underlying problems without making their findings public. DJB seems to suspect that they may influence NIST to select algorithms and param

This was the nagravision encryption mentionned at the end of the article. Old "decodeur pirates" wouldn't work past 1995. They were standalone and didn't require a PC. After that, you had to use a tv card (mine was PCI)

No, signing is done with asymmetric keys. Someone sign with their private key so you can verify it with their public key, basically. Symmetric keys are used to encrypt the code for updates, generally to prevent unintentional leak of secrets

To be fair, there is also some whining involved on the "white hat hacker" side. Triaging reports is not an easy task. The issue I have often witnessed, is a higher up wanting to play down a vulnerability, or even make so nobody he

After reviewing most of the arguments in favor of a lab leak origin, I eventually concluded that when confronted to their counter arguments, the Occam's razor would be in favor of a natural origin for the sars-cov2. Indeed, when I hear
