Fascinating topic. I always wondered how can someone make the jump from understanding a VM like OP's post to something like vmprotect[0] which is orders of magnitude more complex and is designed to be as hard to reverse as possible. [0

Interesting. I knew you could defeat the protection with multiple copies but the number of copies needed to do it could be increased massively. Let's say they want to catch a serial leaker. They could do massive "watermark cohorts

Really cool hack. Though I have a feeling that this will trigger every heuristic AV in existence.

After taking a cursory glance at the sources, It's rather unique in a way that it's GTK based yet looks nothing the average GTK application. I wonder what made them pick GTK instead of QML or even something unique like many DAWs d

For a fully independent indexer, probably the best results I have seen so far. For me the minimum baseline is searching for "444" and if it doesn't return 444.hu as the first result, its a no-go.

Github takes down the repo -> authors host it in a country whose copyright laws are not written by billion dollar companies. I wish all russians a great day. Allowing this mentality to take a foothold in other parts of the world would be

A major browser supporting torrents would be a disaster for public torrent culture. Since everyone closes their browsers, people would seed substantially less. I have a theory that a good chunk of people seeding any given torrent on a publi

How about MS stealing executables and running them on their own servers on the default config of win10? If you had a build of your own application with hardcoded keys in the binary, there is a high chance MS has it now. https://n

A TPM is useless without a keypair that the manufacturer signs for you. If any particular manufacturer would give you the option to just buy the keypair or make it possible to dump it somehow, they would surely get blacklisted. This whole &
