   Did AMD design their processors with these side channel attacks in mind, or is it a matter of where the security research is focused?

   As long as there is a process in place to ensure that is done post collection, there isn't a problem. Ensuring that process is in place is the hard part. My city doesn't do commercial composting, so partially composted cups are en

   This jumped out at me like an easily solvable problem because of what you describe; we could have dogs complete an obedience test to earn the service dog designation. I didn't even think pets could be "upgraded" to service do

   With the ifuse utility you can even mount a subset of your iPhone's storage as a FUSE filesystem. (If it's jailbroken you can mount all of it) Doing so I was able to read the SQLite database Photos uses on my girlfriend's iPh

   There will be privacy until the singularity, don't worry. Continued encroachments on privacy and personal autonomy may indeed deteriorate them, even cripple our ability to protect those rights, but simply worrying about that doesn&#x27

    Also FWIW Apple has a good track record with privacy, it's all opt-in. Edit: Health data is also end-to-end encrypted (accessible by your devices only, Apple servers don't have keys, if you forget your passcode you lose the data);

    Did you read the comment? The problem is self-driving vehicles implemented with fleet data that vacuums up everything will spy on everyone, not just the driver. They need to be implemented with on-board redaction. Otherwise there is no choi

    Self-driving vehicles should be implemented with the same care Apple has given Touch ID and Face ID in regards to protecting sensitive data. Having a central database capable of being scraped and process to determine where any person is at

    So presumably every self-driving vehicle is going to be constantly streaming all sorts of information in their purview to a central hub? That is a privacy nightmare without regulation on scrubbing extraneous information, done before upload:

    I don't think it's the startups that don't realize, rather the stock market that slurps up the IPOs and fuel it.

    Both of you are right from my perspective. IPOs haven't had much to do with current profit.

    Oh gosh that sounds awful. I have to admit I was using "Encrypted SNI" in a general sense, I hadn't looked at the details of ESNI, the proposed solution. In my head encrypted SNIs was a somewhat straightforward problem to sol

    Back in the day there was mostly only 1 website per IP, so when you connected over port 443 for HTTPS, the server would only have the one cert to give you. One day people wanted to serve multiple websites from one IP, so they had browsers t

    I think anything looking to serve China should at least avoid hosting on github pages until encrypted SNI is widely available. When someone visits the online documentation at trojan-gfw.github.io, the FQDN is sent plaintext as part of HTTP

    I'm down for having it public like that, but until everyone does perhaps it'd be best not to readily serialize it in a format for Facebook's immediate consumption.
