Good point to the article, though the quote about Cambridge Analytica seems a bit misguided - the leak there was as a result of Facebook Platform which is antithetical to the ad targeting model which the rest of the article is about. FB l

The article paraphrases Spolsky incorrectly: great developers don’t look for jobs more than 4x in their career not because they stay in their jobs longer (ie: career length/4) but because they are headhunted for most of their jobs so

So Facebook Messenger has the option of end-to-end encryption of chats when you use "Secret Conversations", which are encrypted using the Signal Protocol [0], [1] Is there any indication that FB doesn't scan the contents of

I'm not sure why this is being downvoted - it's IMO one of the most important questions about this post.

You're exactly right and I'm not sure why this is being downvoted. Apple can add additional keys to iMessage messages and thus view them in transit - they say this themselves in their own security white paper[0]. [0]: https:&#x2

The article claims that Japanese PM Shinzo Abe and French PM Emmanuel Macron are Estonian “e-residents”. Has anyone seen any non-Estonian reports which support this claim?

Well, the certs don't _have_ to be shipped with the app, there are workarounds to refresh the certs without sending out a whole new app binary.

Sure, but then you'd have to JB the phone. Most of this stuff is pretty straightforward, but not exactly 'trivial' - especially given the context is an iOS app specifically aimed at making MITM easier.

Could you go about describing how this would work for a 3rd party app like Uber for example?

Charles works by sitting between a server and a phone. It decrypts traffic from the server, displays this to the user to 'inspect', and then re-encrypts the traffic to be sent to the phone. It re-encrypts the traffic using its ow

I like this site and hadn't really read much from it - it's interesting how much it's been front paged over the last couple of weeks: https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=rachelbythebay.com

Sucks that more and more 3rd party apps are adding pinning to their code so you can't sniff their traffic. This is a great tool for first party debugging though :) Nice work Charles!
